We offer core fixed income funds that span the full risk spectrum and asset classes: government bonds, investment grade, high yield, convertible bonds, and green bonds. Our primary specialism is European exposure.
Our fixed income fund range has a long and successful track record and benefits from our talented team of highly rated portfolio managers and the support of our in-house research. Our investment strategy is focused on generating excess returns vs the benchmark with a reasonable level of risk. Our process is active, high conviction and risk-aware, based on a balanced investment strategies to achieve the right exposure to interest rate risk and credit risk.
The team, who have an extensive history and expertise in managing fixed income portfolios, is also involved in the management of institutional, pension fund or unit linked mandates. Our portfolio managers have extensive skills in combining a benchmarked or total return approach with investment opportunities. They apply their knowledge on a pan-European basis, and have experience in understanding and interpreting market trends and economic and financial events to optimize risk-return according to different client needs.
Finally, our portfolio managers have a close partnership with our best-in-class credit analysts and economists. Our credit analysts do not share portfolio management duties, unlike many of our competitors. We believe this gives us an important edge when it comes to an impartial, detailed and robust patrolling of credit risk.
