Investment markets continue to be tested in this highly uncertain environment. Markets will likely remain volatile, with the prospect of corporate debt defaults along with sustained low interest rates and a deep global economic recession.
In an uncertain world, the one thing you can count on to give your clients peace of mind is the stability and liquidity of high grade bonds. They provide dampening benefits against other risk assets such as equities due to the low volatility they offer portfolios and can defend over time. High grade sovereign bonds have done an effective job in diversifying share market risk, you can read more about this in our recent whitepaper.
It is important to understand that not all fixed income securities are created equal. Investors need to be informed of how liquid and defensive their fixed income exposures are as it can have a substantial impact on performance, especially in periods of market stress. Despite the higher volatility environment, JCB remains well positioned to service investor redemption requests.
Adding high grade bonds to a balanced portfolio alongside other riskier assets can help offset risk and assist to get the balance right. High grade bonds can also provide diversification away from financial sector-risk which is commonly found in equities and credit.
March 2020 has provided investors with a valuable reminder that ‘asset quality’ matters more than ever. Many asset owners have been soured by the experience of widening fixed income sell spreads, limited withdrawal windows, and for pre-retirees the occurrence of a sequencing risk event. High grade sovereign bonds have historically defended and protected when needed – we have seen that play out in previous sustained bear markets and we believe they will continue to be a genuine store of wealth in highly uncertain times.
Despite the low risk profile of high grade bonds when compared to other asset classes, all investments carry risk. Please refer to the PDS for key risks.
