About Schroders
- Global home
In a climate of lower interest rates, which looks set to remain the norm for some time, you need your assets to work harder than ever before. This is particularly true in fixed income, where most government bond yields remain at very low levels.
The diversity of global credit markets provides active managers a rich source of return and diversification to your portfolio. Credit is a highly complex and fast moving area, bringing opportunities to managers that can differentiate between individual issuers and bonds. Companies raise capital and issue debt for various reasons and by different methods, and that may not always match clients’ requirements. Many opportunities may appear attractive but can involve compromise on several fronts, including the durability and quality of an individual investment. So it’s essential your credit managers conduct the in-depth analysis required in order to uncover value for you and navigate the risks.
Our global platform allows for ideas to be generated from every corner of the world, while providing a framework for consistent comparison and evaluation. We have the requisite scale and capabilities to uncover the most promising areas of return and to understand sources of risk. Yet we retain the ability to move quickly. We can act on our decisions with conviction, rather than having to hold investments simply due to their size.
Our credit capabilities are built on the deep thinking and experience of our credit team. We have around 100 credit experts based in nine locations worldwide who provide local insight and expertise. Together they take a fundamental research-based, bottom-up approach to investing.
Our credit teams are part of a multi-discipline research platform at Schroders, who can draw on the knowledge of our in-house experts within including equity, ESG, commodities, property, etc.
We have a diverse range of credit strategies that are purpose built to deliver what you need, whether it be absolute return, total return or income. We offer credit strategies that span geographic regions, client outcome and risk tolerance.
We listen carefully to what you need and match this to what credit can deliver, paying close attention to how that outcome is delivered, with the aim of providing the premium client investment experience.
This breadth allows you to blend and switch between strategies throughout the market cycle, yet benefit from a consistent investment approach and philosophy.
Past performance is not a guide to future performance and may not be repeated.
The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the amounts originally invested. Exchange rate changes may cause the value of any overseas investments to rise or fall.
A rise in interest rates generally causes bond prices to fall.
A decline in the financial health of an issuer could cause the value of its bonds to fall or become worthless.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, prices of shares and the income from them may fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. All investments, domestic and foreign, involve risks including the risk of possible loss of principal. Investing in equities involves risk considerations, including market risk, prospects of stocks in the portfolio, changing interest rates, and real or perceived adverse competitive industry conditions. Investing in bonds may include interest rate, credit, inflation/deflation risk, mortgage and asset-backed securities, U.S. Government securities, and liquidity risks, to varying degrees. Investing overseas involves special risks including among others, risk related to political or economic instability, foreign currency (such as exchange, valuation, and fluctuation) risk, market entry or exit restrictions, illiquidity and taxation. These risks exist to a greater extent in emerging markets than in developed markets. The use of derivatives involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in the underlying assets. Private assets are intended only for qualified and/or sophisticated investors and carry special risk considerations, including illiquidity risk, wide differences in valuations, the use of leverage, and higher credit risk than traditional assets. Asset allocation and diversification cannot ensure a profit or protect against loss of principal. No investment strategy, capability or technique can guarantee it will achieve its stated objective.
