During the first edition of Funds Society’s Investments & Rodeo Summit, which will take place on March 5, 2020 at the Intercontinental Houston Medical Center, Felipe Villaroel, portfolio manager at TwentyFour Asset Management, a boutique of Vontobel Asset Management, will talk about its TwentyFour Strategic Income strategy, a multi-sector bond strategy, that aims to provide an attractive level of income along with an opportunity for capital growth throughout the economic cycle.
“It is genuinely unconstrained and un-leveraged long only bond strategy, managed independent of the market indices, combining the best sources of fixed income from around the globe, highly focused on relative value and liquidity.” He mentions.
Felipe joined TwentyFour in 2011 and is a Portfolio Manager in the Multi-Sector Bond team. His main responsibility is managing funds within the Strategic Income Strategy. He is also a member of the Investment Committee. Prior to joining TwentyFour, Felipe worked as an Asset Allocation and Strategy Analyst at Celfin Capital in Chile, now part of the BTG Pactual Group.
