Invesco Global Fixed Income Study 2019

Our study explores 4 key themes

Our second global fixed income study (2019) provides insights on the views, opinions and experiences of 145 fixed income specialists, responsible for the fixed income components of portfolios totalling US$14 trillion in AUM1

These specialists work across pension funds (both defined benefit and defined contribution), sovereign wealth funds, insurers and wholesale investors including private banks, diversified fund managers, multi-managers, and model builders.

With the end of the cycle considered to be in sight and some seminal changes to consider in relation to the construction of global fixed income assets and their role in wider portfolios, fixed income investors are facing more challenging conditions ahead.
