Read the management review
This review looks at our approach to invest in fixed income to safeguard our assets for the long term. It explains how fixed-income management originated from the central bank’s management of the foreign exchange reserves. The role of fixed income in the fund is to reduce return fluctuations, meet liquidity needs and reap bond market risk premiums. These objectives still stand today despite low interest rates.
