Our view on this Fund
This fund does not feature on the Wealth Shortlist of funds our analysts believe have the potential to outperform their peers over the long term. This is not a recommendation to sell; however, if you are thinking of adding to your investments, we believe the Wealth Shortlist is a good place to start. View funds on the Wealth Shortlist »
This fund provides broad exposure to the global high yield bond market, while being mindful of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. High yield bonds are deemed to be less likely to pay off their debts compared to investment grade bonds and therefore have lower credit ratings. This makes them a higher risk investment. They usually offer a higher yield than investment grade bonds to compensate investors for this added risk.
The fund could help diversify an investment portfolio focused on other assets, such as shares, or other types of bonds. Although, funds that just invest in high yield bonds should only form a small part of a well-diversified portfolio, as they are a more specialist part of the bond market.
While we view the fund as a useful way to invest in high yield bonds, it’s not on the Wealth Shortlist as it already features funds that offer investments in this part of the market and are run by managers we rate highly.
