Insight's Emerging Market Debt team aim to provide positive returns over rolling 12-month periods, together with longer-term capital growth. The team invest in total return opportunities offered by emerging market debt, interest rate and currency instruments.
Our investment style is active and diversified, ranging from non-benchmark to benchmark plus mandates. The investment team manage credit, duration and currency exposure through moderately concentrated positions in order to target high, risk-adjusted returns.
We define the investment universe in to five sub-asset classes; external government debt, external corporate debt, local currency government bonds/rates, currencies and derivatives. Our investment team are able to capture the growing structural investment opportunities that have been created by the trend for local investors to play a more significant role in their emerging economies.
The team's strategy is to select the best risk/reward investments from the multiple interest rate, credit and economic cycles of emerging markets globally, and to deliver the return in the portfolio's base currency.
