Partner Insight: Think shorter, look wider -  Making more of short-dated credit

Higher yields don't have to mean taking on more interest rate risk. The shorter end of the bond market can offer attractive income without the added volatility that often comes with extending duration. 

In this Focus guide, Aberdeen's Jonathan Mondillo, Mark Munro and Fergus McCarthy explore why they are looking globally for short-dated opportunities, from investment grade credit to high yield and emerging market debt. Discover why going wider can make more sense than going longer, the risks worth taking, and what this means for investors looking to get more from their fixed income allocation.

Read FOCUS, by completing the form below, to explore why stepping out of cash could be one of the key portfolio considerations for investors today.
