A long-only credit franchise built around conviction.

We do not chase yield. We compound it — patiently, and with respect for downside.

Our fixed income team has navigated twelve years of rate cycles, credit dislocations and central bank pivots. Today, we manage flagship strategies across global sovereign debt, investment grade and high yield credit — each one anchored by the same fundamental research engine.

We avoid benchmark-hugging. Active risk is taken intentionally, sized to conviction, and reviewed daily. The result is a portfolio that earns its yield rather than borrowing it from the index.

What we manage

  • Global sovereign and rates strategies — duration, yield curve and inflation-linked exposure
  • Global investment grade credit — corporate, financial and covered bonds
  • Global high yield and crossover credit — diversified across regions and sectors
  • Liability-driven and absolute return mandates for institutional clients

How we generate durable income.

Four pillars define every fixed income mandate at HPC Suisse.

01

Top-down macro

Rates, inflation and policy form the framework. We size duration and curve exposure to where conviction lies.

02

Bottom-up credit

Issuer-by-issuer fundamental research. We own credit because we understand the balance sheet — not because the index says we should.

03

Risk budgeting

Active risk is allocated, not accidental. Every basis point of tracking error has an owner and a thesis.

04

Liquidity discipline

Position sizing reflects how the bond trades, not just where it is rated. Liquidity is a feature, not an afterthought.

05

ESG integration

Material ESG factors enter credit analysis as a matter of fiduciary discipline — not a separate overlay.

06

Senior oversight

Every position is reviewed by a senior partner. There is no junior committee waving things through.

Performance through cycles.

Long-only credit, managed actively, measured against benchmarks that matter.
