Overview of IGNIS HIGH INCOME BOND

A hybrid bond portfolio from a small but dedicated team. The typically 40 / 60 split between investment and sub investment grade makes the portfolio a contender for investors who want some exposure to junk bonds, without the volatility of a pure high yield fund. However, until the team is at full strength it may be wiser to invest new money in recommended funds.

Investment process


Aims to outperform the sector and peer group through active management of mainly sterling denominated corporate bonds, paying a high monthly dividend. Within this fund Resolution's investment process focuses primarily on top-down analysis for investment grade bonds and bottom-up stock specific selection for non investment grade issues. Additionally, the team is reactive to supply/demand factors driving the market, incorporating these into the portfolio.
The Fund invests in a widely diversified portfolio of corporate bonds and other fixed interest securities. The focus is on good quality non-investment grade bonds, resulting in an average credit rating of BB for the Fund. However, the Fund also invests a good proportion of the portfolio in investment grade bonds. Stock picking and in-depth credit analysis are key and the team have developed a sophisticated in-house credit rating model to help build a fuller picture of both the financial strength of a company and the current economic environment.
