Update: 2025-09-25
Description
Join our host Emily Barlow (Perpetual Private) and Charlie Callan (BondAdviser) our Fixed Interest Category Winner at the IMAP Managed Account Awards 2025. They discuss;
- The key changes they are seeing in the Australian fixed interest market right now
- AT1 hybrids are trading at post-GFC tights, with Big Four margins around +185bps. What’s driving this demand-supply imbalance?
- How investors think about liquidity and volatility risk
- Tier 2 spreads have compressed too far, partly due to ETFs making up about 8% of the universe. What’s your advice on positioning in this context?
- BondAdvisors have noted wave of issuance recently; is this just post-reporting season activity, or a sign of deeper appetite for A$ credit?
- Will international names continue dominating issuance
- Lonsec recently downgraded Metrics’ flagship fund. Should investors read this as a broader signal for the private credit space?
