Bond Investors' Income Buffer Seen to be Better Versus Recent Years

Within fixed income, Julius Baer favors high-quality investment-grade corporate bonds in the five-to-10-year segment, where carry and roll-down potential compensate investors without excessive exposure to a fiscal-driven rise in long-end term premia, the fixed income analyst says. Julius Baer complements this allocation with U.S. Treasury inflation protected securities and real assets as protection against a less orderly fiscal adjustment.
