As many investors approach retirement, stable income can be increasingly hard to find in what can only be described as a low-yielding world. But what many investors and self-funded retirees may not know is that global high yield bonds – a market with over 1500 companies worth over US$2.7 trillion – is an asset class that can help them meet their needs.
In this exclusive video, Vivek Bommi, Senior Portfolio Manager at Neuberger Berman, looks at how the global high yield sector represents a powerful opportunity to invest in the debt of globally respected names, from companies such as Dell and Chrysler through to Netflix.
Below, Vivek guides investors around some of the risks to be aware of when it comes to global high yield, such as bankruptcy risk, while also explaining how he expects the global high yield market to benefit going forward as a result of a stronger global economy.
