Fundamental Fixed Income Research

Coverage Across Traditional and Innovative Sectors

Wellington Management's fixed income research team covers a vast range of fixed income markets and instruments worldwide. In addition to traditional securities, the team seeks out and evaluates opportunities in newer areas that can contribute to meeting the risk and return objectives of our clients.

Our fixed income team covers every sector across the maturity spectrum, including government, investment grade corporate, high yield, mortgage-backed, structured finance, inflation-linked, municipal and emerging markets securities. There is an analyst following virtually every security in every one of our clients' portfolios around the world.

Our fundamental research team is staffed with experienced professionals, many of whom have made research their career. To uncover moneymaking opportunities for our clients' portfolios, fixed income research analysts:

  • Specialize in a sector, country or region
  • Develop an independent viewpoint
  • Assign their own ratings and credit trends to issuers

In addition, analysts identify relative value opportunities between cash securities and derivatives (such as credit default swaps) and across the capital structure in securitized transactions (such as asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations).

When formulating their recommendations, our fixed income analysts benefit from interaction with our equity research analysts and from direct contact with company managements. They also work closely with the firm's fixed income portfolio managers and traders. And, a number of them manage money directly for clients.
