Janus Capital International Ltd, the international arm of Janus Capital Group Inc. (NYSE: JNS), announced today that the Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund (“the Fund”) [1] is now open to subscriptions from investors across Europe (excluding Switzerland) via the Janus Capital Funds plc (JCF) range.
Bill Gross is managing the global macro-driven bond fund, acting on his highest conviction ideas in order to generate positive returns and fixed income diversification, while navigating ever-changing market conditions in the global economy.
Key Components of the Janus Global Unconstrained Bond Fund:
- Duration flexibility to help navigate interest rate volatility
- Absolute-return focus to manage portfolio downside risk
- Global opportunity-set to maximise access to investment opportunities
- Low correlation to traditional assets to offer diversification from core fixed income allocation
- Macro-driven strategy entirely complementary to existing fundamental strategies from Janus’ Fixed Income group
President of Janus Capital International Ltd, Augustus Cheh, added, “We’re extremely excited now to be offering the Janus Global Unconstrained Bond fund to our growing and diverse international client base. Bill’s unconstrained and duration managed strategy could be considered to be a key component to any client portfolio given the interest rate environment. The fund is highly complementary to the very successful fixed income franchise that we have built out over the last decade under the leadership of Fixed Income CIO, Gibson Smith.”
“Additionally, as we continue to address the needs of our clients, Bill will join Nobel Laureate Myron Scholes, Ph.D., Ashwin Alankar, Ph.D., and other members of the Janus team focused on the expansion of our global asset allocation business.”
