Webinar: Navigating fixed income markets in 2023 with PIMCO

About the session

Amid market uncertainty, bond yields have continued to rise, putting fixed income back into the fore after years of lower yield environments. In this time, bonds have been highlighted as a key driver of returns for portfolio allocations, offering more reliability over the longer term. 

But as the second quarter of 2023 comes to a close, is fixed income still relevant? How will uncertainty over the rate path, inflation, and recessions, impact this favoured asset class? 

Endowus warmly invites you to an exclusive webinar in partnership with PIMCO, global leaders in the fixed income landscape. Join Samuel Rhee, Chairman and Chief Investment Officer, and Steffanie Yuen, Head of Hong Kong of Endowus, as they speak with experts from PIMCO to discuss: 

1. The fixed income potential as investors emerge from a lower yield environment
2. The fixed income market outlook for the rest of 2023
3. How PIMCO navigates the credit markets and the evolving fixed income landscape
