Investec AM targets Italian institutional investors with new fund

Investec Asset Management has launched a multi-asset credit defensive strategy for institutional investors in Italy.
Investec Multi-Asset Credit Defensive aims at meeting institutional investors' demand for benchmark and performing independent credit solutions in the current context of low interest rates.
"Our multi-asset credit approach can offer higher yield while controlling risk by diversifying across different credit segments while it can also have low interest rate risk through the use of loans and high yield bonds with low duration.
"In addition, with volatility within financial markets becoming ever more common, we believe a flexible and reactive investment strategy will be far better placed to navigate through different market conditions," Investec AM says.
The Investec Multi-Asset Credit Strategy takes an unconstrained approach to investing, targeting the most efficient allocation of capital across the global credit universe.
