Uncertainty in the financial markets is creating potential opportunities for longer-duration assets in developed markets, as well as value in emerging markets debt and securitized credit. Morgan Stanley Investment Management's Broad Markets Fixed Income team combines expertise from various research and trading sectors to identify what they consider the best opportunities in fixed income.
The firm emphasizes that there is no assurance a portfolio will achieve its investment objective, with portfolios subject to market risk, including changes due to economic events or other factors such as natural disasters or social unrest. They caution that fixed-income securities are vulnerable to credit risk, interest rate changes, and liquidity issues.
Morgan Stanley advises investors to evaluate their ability to invest long-term during market downturns. The company highlights that separately managed accounts may not suit all investors and encourages consideration of investment objectives, risks, and fees before investing.
