We have been present on the bond markets for more than 30 years. Our strategies benefit from extensive historical data that demonstrates the robustness of our process in different market cycles and the efficiency of a management approach that places credit analysis at its heart.
”What characterises our management is the addition of three essential elements: the perfect knowledge of issuers, independent of the market and agency ratings, rigorous risk control and our ESG approach, in particular on two specific axes: governance and climate risk.
In our investment choices, we refuse to select issuers that cannot prove their full responsibility. Commitment to performance, rigorous risk control and the monitoring of ESG criteria are the hallmarks of our management.
Our first conviction is to ensure the quality of the issuers selected in order to generate value for our clients’ portfolios. It is also important to us to support them in their ESG commitments to evolve towards a more virtuous business model.
We provide a range of investment solutions that covers the entire European and global bond market: from short to long term, from the least risky to the riskiest, with benchmarks or decorrelated from the markets. Our ESG range is categorised as Article 9 according to SFDR classification on all fixed income segments.

Highly qualified investment professionals
Our investment philosophy is based on knowledge of the issuer, thanks to which we evaluate its capacity and motivation to repay its debt. We devote a great deal of effort to developing our own fundamental opinion of companies, independent of market valuation and agency ratings. This independent view is the cornerstone of our management.
Our investment philosophy places emphasis on strong knowledge of the governance of the issuer and its risk with regard to climate change – a non-tangible risk today could become a major differentiating factor tomorrow. We are determined to be fully aware of any risk taken in order to anticipate potential defaults.
We prioritise conviction-based management on attractive asset classes (high yield, emerging), absolute return strategies in all bond segments seeking low-rate alternatives, and responsible management in response to societal and regulatory challenges.
