Fixed income investors face a difficult environment as expectations of inflation in the US rise, pushing government bond yields higher. Meanwhile, already tight credit spreads leave little cushion for corporate bonds to absorb the rise in yields. Spotlight On: Fixed Income will focus on how investors can best position their portfolios to deliver total returns, earn income and preserve capital during the post-pandemic economic recovery.
Our partners Eastspring Investments and Vontobel Asset Management will examine fixed income strategies that provide opportunities to achieve positive returns and mitigate risk as markets adjust to the shifting interest rate outlook.
Dedicated partner pages with video content, reports and analysis will go live w/c 3 May however you can register now for the Spotlight On: Fixed Income LIVE event on 6 May here.
