Korea Investment & Securities to Exclusively Offer "Goldman Sachs Global High Yield Income Fund"
Over 60% Allocated to Selected Bond Assets
Pursuing Stable Returns
On November 27, Korea Investment & Securities announced that it will be the exclusive distributor of the overseas bond fund "Korea Investment Goldman Sachs Global High Yield Income Fund," which is managed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
This fund is characterized by its use of Goldman Sachs Asset Management's global research infrastructure, employing a "top-down" macroeconomic analysis to assess overall global economic conditions, while also utilizing a "bottom-up" approach to identify investment opportunities in individual bonds and construct a bond portfolio. Through this strategy, the fund seeks to achieve optimal income returns relative to risk by diversifying investments across a wide range of bond assets, including investment-grade bonds, high-yield bonds, emerging market bonds, and structured bonds.
The fund portfolio manages risk by diversifying the average allocation to each individual security to around 1%, aiming for a strategy that pursues both stable income returns and capital gains. Goldman Sachs holds more than 1.7 trillion dollars (approximately 2,500 trillion won) in bond and money market assets, and, leveraging its experience in multi-sector bond strategies, manages credit risk and duration risk at appropriate levels by capitalizing on inefficiencies in the credit market.
Yang Wontak, Head of Investment Products at Korea Investment & Securities, stated, "This fund will be a great opportunity to pursue stable income returns through Goldman Sachs Asset Management's global research capabilities and unique management strategy," adding, "We hope investors can expect stable returns by taking advantage of opportunities in the global credit market."
