Asset Backed Securities Strategy (ABS)

TwentyFour

The TwentyFour Investment Grade European ABS strategy invests across the full range of the European ABS market, using the natural advantages of the asset class and a vastly experienced team to target stable, attractive returns. The strategy covers the whole risk spectrum available and offers the diversification benefits many bond investors look for, from AAA rated prime retail mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) bonds to CCC rated tranches of commercial loan obligations (CLOs). The breadth and size of what we manage enables us to leverage our relationships with both issuers and banks, which can offer potentially material benefits in yield and structuring for the investors in our strategies.  Our ABS team has been involved in the ABS market since the first European securitisations in the late 1980s.

Source: TwentyFour. Performance figures shown are of the GBP performance adjusted to take into account the impact of share class FX hedging from GBP to USD. Returns are presented on a mid-to-mid basis inclusive of net reinvested income and net of all expenses. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. The performance data do not take account of the commissions and costs incurred on issue and redemption. The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Composite performance is calculated using the weighted average daily performance of similar portfolios within the Composite, since the earliest inception date. All portfolios within the Composite are managed by the same team.
