2018 was tough for most asset classes with the blowtorch being applied in the final quarter of the year. While markets have rebounded in 2019 the volatility provided a good stress test for portfolios. One asset class that proved to be resilient was high-yield credit. Vivek Bommi  from Neuberger Berman says this is also consistent with how the asset class performed during the GFC.

If you were invested in high-yield at the beginning of 2008 by the end of 2009 you were up almost 20%. There’s almost no other asset classes in the world that match that.

This is one of four characteristics that Bommi believes investors don’t fully appreciate about this global asset class. Watch this short video for the full story.

Neuberger Berman’s Global Corporate Income Trust (ASX:NBI) was listed on the ASX in September 2018 and provides investors with exposure to the high yield bonds of large and liquid global companies.
