2 Global Fixed Income Outlook KEY FIXED INCOME MARKET QUESTIONS Can central banks tighten policy without derailing the recovery? Fed, European Central Bank (ECB), Bank of Japan (BOJ), People s Bank of China (PBOC) Do geopolitical events matter to markets? Potential U.S. trade wars (NAFTA, China), North Korea, Brexit Can expansionary policies like tax reform help? Is there anything left to the Trump /reflation trade? Is volatility like a tightly coiled spring? Quantitative easing suppressed volatility while changes to market structure since the global financial crisis remain largely untested LOOKING AHEAD Casting a wider net with global fixed income diversification Using barbell credit strategies high yield and loans with asset-backed securities (ABS) Capitalizing on transformational change countries (Argentina, India, Indonesia) versus laggards (Turkey, South Africa) Being active with security selection and sector rotation 2
