Absolute Return: The Party Is Just Getting Started
The current environment of higher rates, inflation and deglobalization has resulted in elevated idiosyncratic risk and, in turn, an improved opportunity set for absolute return strategies.
In our latest white paper, we examine the performance of absolute return strategies across different rate environments. Since 1990, absolute return strategies generated on average 52% higher excess returns above the three-month U.S. Treasury bill during periods of higher interest rates.
We believe the current environment has become more supportive for absolute return and, in particular, event-driven strategies.
