Twelve Capital Insurance Bond Strategy: H1 2022 Review

The first half of 2022 will no doubt be remembered for severe fixed income volatility. Markets are now reacting to the end of unconventional monetary policy, which for the past several years has supressed the peaks and troughs of traditional economic cycles. Going forward, asset allocation within credit will be highly important, as the margin for error is very acute and will be costly given the deterioration in credit quality for some sectors away from insurance.
