Our approach to fixed income
Fixed income can help preserve capital, generate regular income from coupon payments on fixed rate bonds, and help to offset market fluctuations over time. It can also provide diversification in a portfolio that includes other asset classes, including generally riskier ones, like equities.
Weather economic ups and downs
We've managed fixed income portfolios through economic ups and downs for decades. Our global team of local experts draw on our robust research capabilities and have extensive experience in monitoring risk.
Multi-tiered risk approach
We understand credit, interest rate, inflation, liquidity, and market risks, and we manage against them with the aim of delivering favourable results over the long term.
Backed by research
We use global macroeconomic insights, bottom-up company credit analysis, and an assessment of ESG factors to navigate the increasingly complex fixed income market.
Full spectrum investing
We offer a comprehensive range of strategies spanning the whole spectrum of the fixed income universe across developed and emerging markets, government and corporate debt, and investment grade and high yield markets.
