Absolute Return Fixed Income

Our Absolute Return Fixed Income strategy is an unconstrained global fixed income approach that seeks to achieve attractive returns with limited downside risk.

Key facts

Strategy typeUnconstrained global fixed income
Inception31 August 2012
Reference indexn/a

How we invest

The strategy seeks to achieve a return of 3%-4% p.a. over cash gross of feesOver USD SOFR or equivalent in the relevant currency. This objective is based on the achievement of market assumptions approved by the portfolio management team. This target return does not in any way constitute a promise of future returns, with an expected ex-ante volatility of 4%-6% p.a.. Our actively-managed strategy has a long-term investment horizon (beyond the economic cycle), is value-driven (independent of a central scenario or forecast) and robust (diversified and risk managed).

Our investment philosophy

We believe that an unconstrained, flexible approach to global fixed income investing using the full spectrum of fixed-income instruments is an efficient way of achieving attractive returns while controlling downside risks.
