Building the case for Asia fixed income
With higher yields signalling attractive income and total return potential, fixed income markets are finally looking attractive to investors once again. This comes on the back of rising interest rates and moderating inflation, after years of low yields and a sharp interest rate reset in 2022.
For investors looking to obtain a reliable yield amid market volatility, Asian investment grade bonds are one way to go. Compared to similar high-quality bonds in other regions, Asian investment grade bonds have the potential to provide higher yields at shorter durations, have low correlation with other asset classes, and provide currency diversification.

Stable, higher yields
Asian investment grade fixed income can provide investors with a stream of stable income through different economic and interest rate cycles, with higher yields than similar investments in developed markets.
Higher quality bonds
Investment grade bonds issued by companies or governments are of higher quality and have a low risk of default. Corporate fundamentals among Asia’s higher quality companies remain healthy, with interest coverage improving and debt levels falling.
A strong diversifier
Asia’s economic growth and stability have led to positive credit rating trends and increased demand for Asia fixed income investment opportunities. Diversify into the region for capital growth and to manage portfolio risk.
