Mirabaud - Global Diversified Credit Fund IH cap. USD

Investment overview

A total return fund aimed at providing attractive risk-adjusted returns in all market environments from a diversified portfolio of global credit opportunities. Applying an unconstrained approach, we invest across the rating spectrum, including investment grade, high yield, emerging market debt, asset-backed securities, secured loans and convertible bonds. With maximum flexibility in mind, we take an active approach to duration management, which is targeted between 0-6 years, providing benefits in volatile markets or when interest rates are rising.

Approach to sustainability

We encourage responsible and sustainable industry practices, and assess how material ESG issues can positively and negatively impact the overall credit profile. The integration of ESG and extra-financial considerations into financial analysis is key to the understanding of risk and long-term opportunity. We engage with issuers to support their commitment to improve their ESG practices. We follow a three step process: 1. Exclusion – we apply an exclusion filter for controversial activities; 2. ESG integration – we assign a credit-specific ESG score to companies; 3. Engagement (post-investment), the investment and SRI teams continue to monitor issuers and ensure compliance with ESG standards, including climate goals, through engagement and dialogue.

Monthly commentary

Performance update

 

US Treasuries rallied in June as the market felt the mood around central bank rates was dovish, despite the Federal Reserve 'dot plot' still showing two cuts for 2025 and being close to reducing that down to one. This was fuelled by Trump's criticism of Chairman Powell, and several FOMC members spoke about being in favour of earlier rate cuts – potentially jockeying for position to be the next FOMC Chair. Market pricing moved from 2.2 cuts for 2025 to 2.7 cuts, with 5.5 total cuts by the end of 2026.

Helped by the potential for rate cuts without a recession, credit spreads continued their rebound, with global high yield spread -29bps on the month – and now just +6bps wider on the year. There was dispersion within this, with CCC spreads +105bps vs. BB spreads -6bps, as concerns over economic growth made investors wary of reaching too far down the credit spectrum. The escalation of geopolitical tension in the Middle East predominantly impacted commodity markets rather than fixed income, with some outperformance from energy-related bonds that had lagged in previous months.

In terms of fund performance, the largest contributions came from high yield, investment grade and subordinated financials. On a sector basis, the leading contributor was consumer discretionary.

 

Portfolio activity

 

Due to an outflow, the majority of trading through June involved reducing positions to raise cash.
