Investment Process

Antares Fixed Income Investment Process

Antares Fixed Income believes that debt markets are not completely efficient and, as such, opportunities can be identified and exploited in a systematic way. Risks in fixed income markets are asymmetric and portfolios are constructed to capture income whilst minimizing the risk of capital loss.

Superior returns for a given level of risk can be delivered by investing in a broad set of opportunities and using a diversified range of strategies. Antares Fixed Income seeks to maximise returns across a range of economic cycles.

Antares Fixed Income retains a stable, collaborative and experienced team of investment professionals, who have managed investment portfolios across a range of economic cycles.

Our Process

Antares Fixed Income covers a range of fixed interest instruments across the risk spectrum, including sovereign debt, bank bills, corporate bonds, hybrid securities, private debt and derivatives.

Antares Fixed Income’s core investment process:

• Maximises running yield without compromising capital preservation;
• Focuses on fundamental and qualitative research;
• Performs deep research on individual securities;
• Considers technical and quantitative analysis; and
• Understands illiquidity and how to take advantage of it.

Antares Fixed Income seeks to make tilts away from the benchmark, enhancing returns through a combination of core and tactical strategies. Core strategies consist primarily of credit selection and running yield maximisation, while tactical strategies focus on duration, yield curve and spread positions.
