How we invest

Our investment team combines a top-down assessment of the global risk environment with a bottom-up country analysis. Our focus is by region and not by instrument, which allows a more comprehensive view of the opportunities set in each emerging debt market. We make active decisions relative to the benchmark and have the freedom to significantly deviate from it to achieve the desirable risk-return profile.

Our investment philosophy

Emerging market countries are at varying stages of economic, political and social development. This produces a huge dispersion in country level fundamentals, thus contributing to price inefficiencies. We also think that global macroeconomic factors can trigger short-term bouts of volatility and price inefficiencies. We therefore believe in an active, diversified and sustainable approach.
