Amundi has launched a fund of funds for Hong Kong retail investors that aims to generate regular income and capital appreciation over the medium to long term.
Advised by DBS Bank and managed by Amundi, the Amundi Asia Funds – All Weather Income Fund invests in global fixed income funds. It is designed to provide investors with stable fixed income return, helping them navigate market cycles over the long run. It also serves as a solid option for a core holding in diversified long-term portfolios.
As geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties ratchet up, investors are likely to seek stable and reliable investment opportunities, such as those provided by bonds. Therefore, income funds are particularly attractive for those looking to diversify their portfolios, Amundi says.
The benefits of bond funds extend beyond mere diversification. Global fixed income portfolios are known for their regular returns through interest payments, and are appealing to investors seeking steady income.
In addition, professional management is a significant advantage for individuals in terms of optimizing investor returns. The fund combines DBS’ in-house selection expertise with DBS’ chief investment office macro views, managed by Amundi.
