Core Fixed Income

Aegon AM’s core fixed income capabilities include a wide range of regional and global strategies that span the risk spectrum.

 

Active management and a research-intensive process underpin our approach to identifying opportunities, with a focus on mitigating downside risk and pursuing added value.

Multiple alpha sources

Using a research-intensive process, we pursue multiple alpha sources throughout business and credit cycles. Proprietary bottom-up fundamental research is informed by top-down analysis and macro insights. We bring together global perspectives to identify market opportunities as we aim to build resilient portfolios and pursue better investment outcomes.

 

Disciplined global research framework

Proprietary bottom-up fundamental research is informed by top-down analysis and macro insights.
