Flexibility. Always.
In a challenging and dynamic yield environment, maintaining a flexible mind-set is key.
At Nordea, we believe flexibility matters.
The current environment is extremely challenging for fixed income investors:
- A changing macro environment is driven by monetary policies
- Flexibility is a must to navigate this volatile market environment
- Protection during downturns is at jeopardy due to high correlations between assets

A new approach to diversify fixed income portfolios is needed:
- Unconstrained instead of benchmark oriented: we allocate flexibly between government bonds, credit, emerging markets and currencies in order to navigate volatile markets
- With a global reach: we find opportunities wherever they are
- Balanced: we avoid excessive duration (lower protection) and credit risk (defaults, liquidity)
