Seeking stable returns in bonds with high-quality bias
A diversified high-quality bond portfolio with low volatility
Introducing Fullerton Short Term Interest Rate Fund
The Fund seeks to generate medium-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of primarily investment-grade1 fixed income securities and money market instruments issued by government, agencies, corporates and supranationals.
Where the Fund invests in non-SGD denominated bonds, currency exposures are fully hedged back to SGD2.
