Robeco has announced the registration of three actively-managed fixed income strategies for retail investors in Hong Kong and Singapore. The strategies—Robeco Credit Income, Robeco High Yield Bonds, and Robeco QI Dynamic High Yield—are now available for distribution partners to activate in these markets. Previously accessible on private banking platforms, these strategies aim to offer quality and resilience to retail investors.
The Robeco Credit Income Strategy, launched in 2018, is designed to meet the demand for income among Asian clients. It adopts a global approach, sourcing yield across investment-grade credit and high-quality segments of global high yield and emerging markets. The strategy incorporates sustainability analysis alongside traditional credit analysis and is managed by Evert Giesen and Jan Willem Knoll. As of December 2025, it managed $2.25b in assets, with over half sourced from Asian clients.
For those seeking high yield exposure, Robeco offers the High Yield Bonds Strategy, managed by Sander Bus and Roeland Moraal. This strategy focuses on quality, aiming to avoid losses and reduce drawdowns during market downturns. Robeco manages $12.7b in fundamental high yield bond strategies as of September 2025.
The Robeco QI Dynamic High Yield Strategy, operational since 2014, invests in Credit Default Swap indices and government bonds. It uses a dynamic timing model to allocate risk, offering liquidity in an otherwise illiquid asset class. Dawn Foo, Regional Head of Wholesale Distribution, Asia-ex Japan at Robeco, stated, “These strategies bring compelling opportunities for those seeking quality and resilience.”
Robeco, with a history in fixed income investing dating back to the 1970s, managed $75.2b in fixed income assets by the end of September 2025.
