What is Efficient Fixed Income Beta?
Our ‘efficient beta’ strategies seek to generate sufficient returns, after trading costs, to deliver index-like returns with a low tracking error.
They aim to harvest returns by exploiting systematic and structural market inefficiencies, which are often ignored by other managers as a result of high trading costs and the inability to source certain bonds in illiquid segments of the global fixed income market.
