Quality fixed income matters in uncertain markets
In a late cycle where economic growth slows, this generally presents a favourable environment for quality fixed income assets (i.e. those with higher credit ratings). Investing in a global portfolio of higher-rating bonds presents opportunities for diversification while mitigating volatility.
Information is provided to illustrate team’s current investment philosophy and process only, which is subject to change from time to time, not to be construed as offer, research or investment advice. Diversification does not guarantee investment return and does not eliminate the risk of loss. Yields are not guaranteed. Positive yield does not imply positive return.
