Objective
Seeks capital appreciation with income as a secondary goal.
Overview
A global bond fund, designed to be a core bond holding, that seeks to exploit inefficiencies in the global fixed-income and currency markets.
A World of Fixed-Income Opportunities
While most core bond funds invest exclusively in U.S. fixed income, the Fund uses a core allocation to global government bonds that the portfolio managers believe are high-quality based on their proprietary research. This core allocation is complemented by opportunistic investments in other global bonds and currencies, including high yield and emerging-market debt.
Risk Management Is Key
The portfolio managers draw on the expertise of more than 70 specialists in a variety of fixed-income sectors to select securities and use a robust risk-management process to identify potential areas of risk, especially unintended concentration risk.
Providing a Core Bond Experience
The core bond portion of a portfolio should help decrease overall portfolio volatility. The Fund seeks to provide a low correlation to risk assets (like stocks) while also providing capital appreciation.
The portfolio managers are supported by the full resources of Wellington.
