Asian Fixed Income
HSBC Asset Management provides a suite of Asian Fixed Income investment solutions, including in Asia USD credit, which consists of investment grade, high yield, and high income strategies, as well as Asia local currency bonds, which consists of India bonds, RMB bonds, and SGD bonds.
Our philosophy
- We believe that the inefficiencies of the Asian fixed income market can be identified by the careful and disciplined analysis of Asian economic and industry cycles, as well as individual issuers and issues
- We believe that by understanding the management style and culture of Asian businesses and institutions, while identifying local supply and demand dynamics, we can manage unique investment risks to take full advantage of the opportunity set
- We believe that by combining these local insights together with a truly global perspective, we can construct portfolios in a risk-controlled framework, which can potentially deliver optimal risk-adjusted returns for our clients
Our process
- Our process is active, fundamental and value driven. It uses quantitative inputs on a selective basis and combines qualitative top-down analysis of macroeconomic and market dynamics, with structured bottom-up research into individual bond issuers and fixed income securities
- Leveraging the local insight from our investment professionals across the Asia-Pacific region, the team seeks multiple, uncorrelated alpha sources, with the aim of providing good risk-adjusted returns
- We have a stable and well-resourced team with investment professionals and credit research analysts based in five offices across Asia
