Shantanu Tandon, portfolio manager said: “Market-implied US policy rate expectations continue to build in a 100bp reduction in rates by end 2024, double the magnitude expected in June. The big question is whether September’s cut will be a 25bp or 50bp move, with markets tilting towards the former. Either way, the start of the easing cycle should help to support risk assets, and we remain constructive for now."

The world’s leading superpower will soon head to the polls to choose a new president. It is hard to remember a time of greater division, and the two candidates have very different approaches to the world’s problems. We look at how the next presidential term could impact the three most prominent geopolitical flashpoints in our latest paper: https://bit.ly/4dxoEBg Capital at risk.

Once again, high yield markets delivered positive returns through the rate-hiking cycle. Interestingly “fallen angels” (companies with former investment grade bond ratings that have since been downgraded to high yield), performed better than the broad high yield market despite higher average interest rate risk. Should investors looking for higher bond yields consider a dedicated fallen angels strategy? Read more here: https://bit.ly/3x7fGv0 Capital at risk.

Many high yield bonds allow the issuer to redeem before final maturity. The earlier the call, the higher the price the issuer needs to pay. We are often asked why issuers are prepared to pay a premium to call their issues early. We explain why in our latest paper: https://bit.ly/3Awkhbw Capital at risk.

Will President Trump pursue the same foreign policy goals if elected for a second term in November? At the very least it will be reasonable to expect similar levels of unpredictability. To some degree this may be a deliberate policy to keep negotiating partners on the back foot.

Macroeconomic or cyclical forces appear to have a strong influence on returns. This led us to build a simple, transparent framework to help us understand how different macro regimes can influence the behaviour of individual asset classes.

We would like to join the Oxford Sustainable Finance Group in thanking Mary Schapiro for her insightful lecture and for her outstanding contribution to driving progress within financial services. We look forward to hearing more about the outstanding research that will be highlighted later this year in the Greening Finance Prize 2024.
Huge congratulations to Mary Schapiro, who won the inaugural Insight Investment – University of Oxford Prize for Greening Finance in the Outstanding Service category. As part of the Prize, Schapiro gave a lecture titled ‘Looking back and moving on: reflections on forty years of changing climate, law and finance’ in Oxford on 12th June. Watch the lecture again here: https://lnkd.in/enbUgHqt. Schapiro is Vice Chair for Global Public Policy of Bloomberg L.P., Vice Chair of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) and Chair of the Climate Data Steering Committee (CDSC). She is also former Chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In her 2023 Prize citation the judging panel highlighted Schapiro’s instrumental leadership in establishing the new global architecture for #sustainability #reporting.
