The sub-manager will be investing primarily in fixed-income securities of government and corporate issuers throughout the world. The majority of these issuers are from developed countries. The fixed-income securities include primarily, but are not limited to, sovereign bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds, mortgage-related and asset-backed securities.
