Fixed Income

Mirabaud DM Fixed Maturity 2031

High quality credit at an attractive yield.

Fixed income yields remain appealing – but for how long?

Fixed maturity strategies offer simplicity, transparency and predictability to lock in high yields. But timing is key as short-term rates are expected to fall.

Mirabaud DM Fixed Maturity 2031 gives clients access to a transparent, well diversified, investment-grade rated portfolio with high cash flow and returns visibility.

Portfolio manager Al Cattermole gives an overview of the market opportunity and explores the strategy in more detail.
