BLI’s bond management strategy enables investors to benefit from the virtuous dynamics of the stable or improving quality of the issuers identified and solid credit ratings due to their proven control of debt service. We avoid issuers with deteriorating credit metrics – no matter how cheaply their bonds are valued.

Our investment philosophy

When selecting issuers, quality is the priority.

Our active and unrestricted strategy exploits the virtuous circle of:

• stable or improving issuer quality
• falling cost of debt

while controlling the risks.

Our investment process

Top-down considerations to define the framework, a bottom-up approach to applying it

 

Bond management and sustainable development goals

BLI's bond management integrates the sustainable development goals in three areas defined by the UN:

• ESG optimisation
• Liquid impact investing
• Alternative impact investing and microfinance

In particular, through microfinance, we are targeting the reduction of poverty and access to quality education, healthcare and affordable clean energy.
