Amundi Convictions: Fixed Income
Discover the potential
Fixed income strategies, to protect and grow
The era of low interest rates is over. Inflation is here, and we believe it’s going to be higher than it was in the past.
The Covid-19 pandemic led to a substantial increase in inflation due to supply-chain bottlenecks at first, geopolitical tensions and high energy prices which have each contributed to a substantial shift in both monetary and fiscal policy.
In this complex scenario, we believe that Fixed Income strategies could be used to protect your capital and grow your returns.
Financial markets have experienced a considerable repricing, which has been particularly evident in the fixed income space and, as a consequence, bonds are now under the spotlight with more attractive valuations and an improved outlook.
At Amundi, we do not focus only on bonds. Money Markets and Short Term bonds, in our view, could be interesting strategies at a time when interest rates are getting higher and traditional savings don’t offer any real benefit.
