31-Jan-2021 - Arif Husain, Head of International Fixed Income,
Overall, we maintain a constructive risk view against a backdrop of ultra-accommodative monetary policy, expansionary fiscal policy, vaccines, and significant pent up demand for services. Accordingly, we kept overall duration toward the low end of our permitted range and we expressed a positive bias in credit markets during January. We will be monitoring these themes closely, standing ready to take any action should we see signs any one of them is reversing.

30-Jun-2020 - Arif Husain, Head of International Fixed Income,
Core government bonds were broadly stable during June, while risk assets, such as credit and equity, continued to perform well as the outlook for growth improved. In the U.S., Treasury yields ended the month little changed amid stronger-than-expected economic data releases and a dovish outlook from the U.S. Federal Open Market Committee. In the eurozone, periphery government bonds outperformed the core, supported by the European Central Bank (ECB) expanding monetary easing measures. At the portfolio level, our positive bias toward eurozone periphery countries had a positive impact, particularly our long duration postures in Italy and Cyprus. Our allocation to U.S. inflation-linked bonds also added gains, while our long duration position in the U.S. dragged on performance. In foreign exchange markets, our long positions in the Argentine peso and Brazilian real contributed, while a short position in the South Korean won and long position in the Japanese yen held back returns.

30-Jun-2020 - Arif Husain, Head of International Fixed Income,
Within the eurozone, we increased our overall positive bias toward the periphery during June. We believe that the combination of ongoing strong support from the ECB and positive surprises coming from domestic and EU-wide fiscal initiatives will be supportive for the region. Accordingly, we increased our long duration stance in Italy and maintained positive biases in Cyprus and Spain.

In the currency sphere, our expectations for the European economy to recover faster than peers led us to initiate a new long position in the euro during June.
