Why fixed income now ?

 

After more than a decade of low interest rates, the tide is finally turning.  Bond yields have markedly increased on the response of multiple episodes of Fed tightening and fixed income is now showing signs of growth. As yields increase we expect there to be distinct investment opportunities within the fixed income space, whether as a vehicle to deliver income or as a diversifying asset to equity markets.
 

BNY Mellon Investment Management, offers extensive fixed income capabilities. Clients can access traditional and specialist fixed income strategies which can be tailored to meet client-specific investment needs.
 

Our expertise spans the spectrum of global fixed income opportunities, with our investment philosophy focused on achieving precision and diversification as we pursue a range of outcomes for our clients.
 

We seek out yield in unexpected places, constantly innovating to deliver refreshingly different fixed income solutions.

 

 

Featured Funds

We offer a broad range of fixed income solutions, from traditional fixed income to specialist fixed income funds.

 

 

BNY Mellon Global Credit Fund

BNY Mellon Global Credit Fund

Objective: To achieve a total return from income and capital growth.

Benchmark: The Fund will measure its performance against the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Credit TR Index (hedged to US Dollars) (the “Benchmark”).

The Fund is actively managed, which means the Investment Manager has discretion to invest outside the Benchmark subject to the investment objective and policies disclosed in the Prospectus. However, as the Benchmark covers a significant proportion of the investable universe, the majority of the Sub-Fund’s holdings will be constituents of the Benchmark and the weightings in the portfolio may be similar to those of the Benchmark. The investment strategy will restrict the extent to which the portfolio holdings may deviate from the Benchmark and consequently the extent to which the Sub-Fund can outperform the Benchmark.
