Claudia Calich, fund manager at M&G Investments will outline her view on where to find pockets of value in emerging markets debt assets, when she takes part in the Funds Society Fund Selector Summit Miami 2016.
Currently, emerging market investors face uncertainty from factors such as slower economic growth in China, volatile oil prices and geopolitical risk. Calich suggests flexibility in strategies such as the M&G Emerging Markets Bond fund facilitate taking high conviction positions without being constrained by local or hard currency, or differences between government and corporate bonds.
Outlining the opportunities, Calish will also explain her currency and interest rate positioning.
Calich joined M&G in October 2013 as a specialist in emerging markets debt and was appointed fund manager of the M&G Emerging Markets Bond fund in December 2013. She was also appointed acting fund manager of the M&G Global Government Bond fund and acting deputy fund manager of the M&G Global Macro Bond fund in July 2015. Claudia has over 20 years of experience in emerging markets, most recently as a senior portfolio manager at Invesco in New York, with previous positions at Oppenheimer Funds, Fuji Bank, Standard & Poor’s and Reuters. Claudia graduated with a BA honours in economics from Susquehanna University in 1989 and holds an MA in international economics from the International University of Japan in Niigata.
