Flossbach von Storch -

Bond Opportunities 

Flossbach von Storch - Bond Opportunities is a globally diversified bond fund with an active investment approach. It focuses on corporate bonds, government bonds and covered bonds. The fund is suitable for both institutional investors and private investors as a sensible addition to a growth-oriented investment strategy. 

The investment strategy

Potential returns are not only offered by equities, but also by bonds. The key to success lies in an opportunistic investment strategy. As freely tradable securities, bonds (regardless of their stated coupon yields) offer attractive investment opportunities, which we systematically utilise. In doing so, we ensure that the portfolio is broadly diversified. The fund management team invests in different individual securities, currency areas and bond types, with a clear focus on bearer bonds.

The fund manager

Frank Lipowski has been a Senior Fund Manager at Flossbach von Storch since 2009. The same year saw the launch of the Bond Opportunities Fund, for which Frank Lipowski has been Fund Manager since the Fund’s inception. Prior to joining Flossbach von Storch, the graduate in Business Administration worked at Partners Group AG in Switzerland and at Lupus Alpha Asset Management in Frankfurt.

Clear principles for discerning investors

Broad diversification

We invest a maximum of 10 per cent of the fund's assets in the securities of any one issuer. We also avoid excessive concentration of bonds from the same industry, credit quality, currency or region.

Multi-stage selection process

A thorough risk analysis is our highest priority in all investment decisions. We strive to avoid any risks that could lead to a permanent loss in the value of an investment.

Active management

Through an active investment strategy and a wide range of investment instruments, our fund management team is able to harness potential returns that go far beyond the coupon yield.

"Bonds can be used to fulfil strict investment requirements. But bond funds can do much more than that - their potential is often underestimated."

Rate cuts every quarter

- Julian Marx

In just four meetings, the ECB cut interest rates four times – because inflation is losing steam. This would be the new normal, were it not for the risks posed by an unpredictable US trade policy.

Feeling the way through the fog

- Julian Marx

The US Federal Reserve has decided yet again not to change interest rates. At first glance, little has changed – but in terms of the global monetary system, the decision was hugely significant

Little interest in high interest rates

- Frank Lipowski

At times, US Treasury yields rose significantly. Nevertheless, the markets reacted cautiously. We take a look back – and a look forward.
