Generating Alpha with Investment Grade Bonds

One of Canada’s most seasoned investment managers shares insights on how he generates alpha in today’s challenging fixed income environment.

Wednesday August 31, 2016, 12:00 Noon EDT

We are excited to announce our newest actively managed fixed income ETF, First Asset Investment Grade Bond ETF (TSX:FIG), managed by Paul Sandhu of Marret Asset Management. This ETF invests primarily in global investment grade corporate bonds employing a truly active process, differentiating itself from the competition by being able to hedge various fixed income risks – whether it be interest rate risk, credit risk, or other more systemic macro-economic risks.

During this webinar, Paul will address:
  • How the global opportunity set provides significant alpha potential
    • 60% of alpha is generated outside Canada, causing access to US and European bond markets to be critical
  • Actively managing risk
    • Ability to take short positions to hedge away various risks, including the ability to go negative duration in periods of rate increases
  • Normal? A new normal or a return to normal for interest rates
    • Paul will discuss Marret’s interest rate projections and offer an interesting perspective supporting the projected “lower for longer” theme that currently persists
  • His trades and market forecast
    • Every week Paul publishes a market commentary that includes all his trades. During this presentation, you will have the opportunity to learn how Paul will draw on over 30 years of experience to deliver results for First Asset Investment Grade Bond ETF.
