Did you know icon

Did you know?

International bonds are typically issued in local currencies — meaning a US or Singapore-based investor holds indirect exposure to the euro, yen, pound, and dozens of other currencies simultaneously. Currency hedging is commonly applied to international bond funds to neutralise this effect, allowing investors to isolate the yield and credit characteristics without taking on currency risk. The global ex-US bond market is actually larger than the US bond market alone, representing trillions of dollars in investable debt.
