Webinar Overview

Investment grade credit spreads are close to the bottom of their 20-year range, raising an important question: are pension schemes being adequately compensated for the risk they are taking?

Join Allianz Global Investors as we explore the case for short-duration credit and its potential role in supporting DB schemes. We'll discuss how it can help meet cashflow needs, generate returns above gilts, and maintain the flexibility needed to keep endgame options open.

The session will also compare short-duration credit with alternatives such as ABS, private credit and other credit strategies, and consider the implications for LGPS funds and open schemes.
