[Mercer Consulting: Funds are withdrawing from US assets due to Trump] According to Mercer Consulting's analysis, Trump's moves to restructure the global trade system and pressure the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates are prompting investors to cut their allocations to US assets. The company's global chief investment officer in New York, Hooman Kaveh, revealed that the 3,900 clients he manages (with a total asset size of US$17 trillion) are continuing to shift funds from the United States to other markets such as Europe and Japan. The outflow of funds stems from concerns about tariff policies, Trump's intervention in the Federal Reserve, rising deficits and expectations of a weaker US dollar. "The start of Trump's second term has become a catalyst for real diversification," Kaveh said in an interview this week. "We clearly observe that client portfolios are flowing into diversified markets, regions, asset classes and currencies."
