Active Fixed-Income
The best of both worlds – targeting attractive returns while preserving capital
Mitigating risk - at the heart of the investment process
With a market environment in constant evolution, fixed income investors benefit from deep credit knowledge and the ability to quickly assess opportunities across the yield curve. The BMO Active Fixed Income Team incorporates this approach seeking to deliver attractive returns by combining their proven multi-factor (Yield curve, Credit spread, Carry + Rolldown) analysis and decades of experience across fixed income markets.
Protecting our client’s capital remains at the centre of their investment process with rigorous risk oversight, including for environmental, social & governance (ESG) issues. The Team recognizes the different realities and challenges facing institutional investors and thus offers customized solutions to properly address those.

Bringing ESG into our valuation model
While ESG issues are generally associated with equity investments, they also impact corporate credit by potentially undermining a company’s ability to meet its financial obligations. As a result, we take several steps to reduce ESG risks into some of our active fixed income portfolios.
