South Korea

4.0 Stars - Very Attractive


Macro Outlook

  • South Korea's export-led recovery remains supported by firm global demand and a recovering industrial cycle entering 2022.
  • While growth has been strong, economic momentum may slow in 1H with the normalisation of export orders and central bank tightening.
What we like about

  • Excluding the earnings distortions from one-off factors, earnings in '22 should grow by high single-digits.
  • Long-term demand for Semiconductors remains strong and supply problems are expected to gradually resolve by mid-2022.
  • Valuations remain close to pandemic lows.
Investment Risk(s)
  • Rising Omicron cases may halt re-opening plans and international travel lanes.
  • Potential chip glut in the near-term.
