Analysts at UBS said Monday that investors should consider diversified tech exposure, with one region potentially standing out.

The bank noted that US tech stocks started March strongly, helping to propel the S&P 500 to an all-time high for the 15th time this year on Friday amid optimism over the outlook for the commercialization of artificial intelligence (AI).

"With generative AI looking set to be the growth theme of the decade and US large-cap tech companies leading the revolution, we continue to believe that US tech stocks should make up a substantial portion of investors' equity allocations," analysts wrote. "This means building up a strategic US large-cap holding for those underinvested."

However, for investors with excessive exposure, UBS said they should consider diversification, with emerging trends in the industry also aspects that should be considered for broadening tech exposure.

"We think Asia is a compelling destination for tech diversification, and see further potential in AI customs chips and foundries," the bank stated.
