Our philosophy and process
- The strategy benefits from continuous and detailed collaboration between credit and equity analysts. ESG considerations are integrated throughout the research process to ensure that any material issues are captured.
- The strategy’s investment universe consists largely of investment-grade UK-based corporate bonds. A constantly evolving and forward-looking approach seeks to anticipate change and identify opportunities.
Every time we consider a security or look at an industry or country, it’s in the context of what’s happening across the world. We believe the investment landscape is shaped over the long term by some key trends, and we use a range of global investment themes to capture these.
Investment team
Our Long Corporate Bond strategy is managed by a focused, experienced fixed-income team. Our global sector analysts and investment managers are located on a single floor in London, which helps to ensure that the investment process is flexible and opportunistic. Guided by our global investment themes, the team works together to identify opportunities and risks through research and debate.
