(Bloomberg) State Street Corp.’s asset management unit is bullish on stocks, especially those in Japan.
Richard Lacaille, who helps oversee €2.16 trillion in assets as the chief investment officer at State Street Global Advisors, said valuation measures show Japan is one of the most-attractive markets among developed countries. Improving corporate governance, increasing dividends and a weaker currency are helping Japanese companies deliver good earnings consistently, he said in an interview in Tokyo last week.
