Ahead of the Curve
Fixed Income Webinars
Proprietary research is our foundation at T. Rowe Price, but free discussion is the air we breathe. The bi-annual Ahead of the Curve webinar – a thematic conversation with no limits and no preconceptions – is hosted by Amanda Stitt, Fixed Income Portfolio Specialist, alongside Arif Husain, Global Fixed Income CIO, and invited expert guests.
Are bond markets approaching an inflection point?
Fixed income entered 2026 on solid footing. However, escalating geopolitical tensions and rising energy prices have injected fresh uncertainty into global markets, complicating both the inflation and policy outlook.
With the rate-cutting cycle nearing its end and attention turning to nominated Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, investors are reassessing the path for rates, the US dollar, and global growth.
Credit markets have remained resilient, but tighter spreads, refinancing pressures, and rising event risk are testing that strength. In a more fragmented world, where do the risks — and opportunities — now lie?
Join our senior fixed income leaders for Ahead of the Curve, our bi-annual webinar series, as they assess the evolving macro and market backdrop — and what it means for fixed income positioning and portfolio construction in 2026.
Speakers:
- Arif Husain, Head of Global Fixed Income & CIO
- Robert Larkins, Head of Fixed Income Quant Portfolio Management
- Adam Marden, Portfolio Manager
- Amanda Stitt, Portfolio Specialist
