Macquarie Income Opportunities Fund
Asset Class: Fixed Interest
Description: Australian Focus, Credit, Low Duration
- The Macquarie Income Opportunities Fund provides exposure to a wide range of investment grade credit-based securities (predominantly floating and fixed rate corporate bonds, and asset-backed securities) and cash.
- The Fund may also have modest exposure (circa 20%) to global high yield credit securities, emerging market debt, hybrid securities and a range of credit opportunities when they are expected to outperform and reduce exposure to these sectors when they are expected to underperform.
- Generally, the Fund exposure will be to floating rate notes. The investment process aims to reduce the risk of the Fund being adversely affected by unexpected events or downgrades in the credit rating of the fund’s investments.
