Our experienced team invests in a wide range of asset-backed bonds, and the floating rates of the underlying securities will be beneficial in a rising interest rate environment.

High yield

Sub-investment grade debt markets can offer higher yields than investment grade markets for higher credit risks. At Insight, we emphasise a short-dated approach to high yield which has the potential to lower credit risks and volatility while retaining higher yields than investment grade markets. Short-dated high yield offers little in the way of interest rate risks and is more influenced by prevailing economic conditions.

Inflation-linked bonds

Our inflation-linked bond strategies offer long-term liability-matching benefits, as well as a degree of protection from changes in inflation rates. Our approach considers inflation and corporate exposure as individual components and focuses on the broader credit market whilst also gaining inflation protection through the use of derivatives.

Investment grade credit

Investing in credit offers the potential for higher yields than government strategies. As well as managing traditional corporate bond portfolios, we innovate with alternative strategies like asset-backed securities and absolute return funds.
