Aviva Investors Launches Short Duration Global Credit Fund
What happened
Aviva Investors launched the Short Duration Global Credit fund, which will be managed by Justine Vroman. The fund was designed to provide income generation, capital preservation, and portfolio resilience in uncertain markets. It will launch with an initial investment of $230 million from the Aviva Investors multi-asset team.
Why it matters
The fund combines a high-quality investment-grade core with flexibility to allocate across government bonds, asset-backed securities, high yield bonds, and emerging markets. Fraser Lundie, global head of fixed income at Aviva Investors, noted that the current environment strengthens the case for short duration credit. This offering is the fourth recent addition to Aviva Investors’ fixed income range.
