Mirabaud Global Short Duration Strategy
Our Global Short Duration strategy seeks out the best investment opportunities across the global short-term fixed income universe to provide our clients with a return of capital growth and income, with a focus on capital preservation. Our blended, active, flexible approach is designed to deliver stable returns throughout the business cycle and in any rates environment.
Expertise
A highly skilled team of credit experts with over 120 years of combined experience through all market cycles over the last 25 years.
Flexible, best-ideas approach
Our flexible approach is structured to limit risk and access the best opportunities by seeking bonds with hard maturity profiles, blending global investment grade and high yield throughout the business cycle.
Integrated ESG
Advanced ESG/climate impact analysis is embedded in our decision-making. This, along with ongoing engagement, steers us towards quality issuers.
Investment Philosophy and Process
Identifying what drives the returns of different fixed income sub-asset classes at various points in the business cycle is the key to sustained returns. We move dynamically between credit and duration risk, assessing where each region is within its cycle to steer our top-down allocation.
Our bottom-up analysis begins with positive screening against an exclusion list, followed by an assessment of the ESG-climate profile of each company. Within the reduced universe, fundamental, technical and valuation factors are analysed to provide an overall ranking, which we use to construct the portfolio. We use a scorecard to monitor companies with lower ESG-climate profile assessments and ongoing engagement to encourage best practice.
