Issued by companies with a sub-investment grade credit rating, high yield bonds typically provide a higher level of income in order to compensate investors for the greater risk of default. M&G has long-running experience in this specialist field, having launched the UK’s first high yield corporate bond fund in 1998. More recently, we launched a highly innovative floating rate high yield strategy, designed to mitigate the negative impact of rising interest rates.
Focusing on bonds issued by highly-rated companies, we believe investment grade corporate bond funds can offer a resilient source of income at different stages of the economic cycle. Having launched the first UK corporate bond fund in 1994, M&G has a long history of innovation in this space. Today we offer a comprehensive range of investment grade corporate bond strategies drawing on our long-running expertise in credit investing and extensive credit analyst resources.
Our sustainable investing strategies seek to mitigate negative impacts on the environment and society and will allocate towards investments that are expected to make a positive contribution to environmental and social objectives.
