Bond Funds
Hume's investment managers' core competencies are macro, micro
fundamental and market relative value analysis. Our macro analysis
establishes our views on relative and absolute market thematic /
sector outlook and informs our views on forward rates path /
appropriate duration positioning. Our fundamental analysis seeks to
understand a business, its drivers and cash flows. We model these
micro dynamics in the context of an issuer's / specific issuance's
relative value versus its own capital structure and that of its
peers, and identify catalysts that we believe will initiate an
absolute or relative revaluation of the business.
For our fixed income portfolios Hume's investment managers are
generally free to select issuance on an unconstrained basis within
the specific mandate and aims of a fund. Typically, focused
portfolios of 25 - 50 holdings are managed with a view to achieving
premium risk-adjusted returns for investors.
Our current fixed income mandates include both short and
longer-dated Investment Grade (European, US and OECD), and
unconstrained (European and Global) portfolios.
Hume International Bond Fund
The aim of the Fund is to provide investors with a considerably
higher return than the yield available on cash deposits, combined
with a cautious approach to volatility of returns
