We are focused on credit selection and so the investment process needs to be one of teamwork with everyone contributing and challenging investment ideas. This credit-intensive approach should lead to outperformance over the long term, mainly from security selection and sector rotation.
Alongside this, our IG investment team works closely with our market-leading US High Yield team to identify potential rising star opportunities. This crossover strategy also benefits from the expertise of our IG analysts, many of whom have prior experience covering high yield credits.
Investment Grade
Investment grade bonds offer investors exposure to a region or global universe without taking on a high level of risk.
