SWIP global head of rates Graeme Caughey said: "With prospective returns looking low for traditional asset classes, absolute return bond strategies are playing an increasingly important role for many clients."
"The partnership of James and Dan ensures a clear process to harness expertise from our credit, rates and currency teams, meaning the best research ideas are available to build a diversified portfolio."
The fund is in the second quartile of the IMA Absolute Return sector for the past three years and SWIP said that, on a risk-adjusted basis, it is in the top decile of the sector for one and three years.
