Home Site Map Contact Us US Europe Australia Singapore Company Overview ... PIMCO Foundation Product Focus May 2004 Global Bonds: Expanding Opportunities To Diversify Global portfolio diversification is more important than ever as economies around the world continue to navigate the transition from a recovery driven by pro-growth policies to a recovery that is durable and self-sustaining. During this transition, investors around the world are watching closely for signs of durable economic growth in their own economies and elsewhere. However, economies in transition often send mixed signals, heightening the uncertainty and volatility in financial markets as investors react to conflicting data. The most effective method for offsetting uncertainty and limiting portfolio volatility is diversification. But in today’s global marketplace, a mix of domestic assets alone may no longer provide sufficient diversification because the ebb and flow of foreign investment can cause asset classes denominated in the same currency to rise and fall together. For example, international investors could determine that the U.S. dollar is unattractive and rapidly shift their capital into Europe or Asia, which could weigh on all U.S. assets. By spreading investments among countries at different stages of the economic and interest rate cycle, fixed income investors can maximize diversification, reducing the likelihood that portfolio assets will all move in the same direction at once. The chart below shows the effect of adding currency-hedged foreign bonds to a U.S. investor’s bond portfolio during the 10-year period ended March 31, 2004. As foreign bonds are added to the portfolio, returns increase while volatility (defined by the standard deviation) declines relative to a portfolio consisting only of U.S. Treasuries.

PIMCO Foundation Product Focus May 2004 Suhail Dada Discusses PIMCO’s Approach to Global Bond Investing Suhail Dada, CFA Senior Vice President, Product Manager for PIMCO’s Global Bond Strategy Download PDF Click here to read Suhail Dada's biography. Suhail Dada is the product manager for PIMCO’s Global Bond Strategy. We spoke to him about the reasons for investing in global bonds in the current environment and PIMCO’s approach to global bond investing: Q: Economic growth appears to be on the upswing in many regions of the globe. What is the case for investing in global bonds in such an environment? Dada: While economic growth is picking up across the globe, this recovery will not be synchronized. In 2003, we witnessed strong growth from the U.K., Australia and New Zealand, while the U.S. and Japanese economies were beginning to gather strength. As growth in the U.S. and Japan has accelerated in the first quarter of 2004, there are already tentative signs that monetary tightening in the U.K., Australia and New Zealand is starting to slow domestic demand. Meanwhile, Euroland has struggled and growth there will continue to lag its global counterparts. And Canada, which had a robust first half of 2003, has since seen growth falter and inflation fall. Global bonds provide a good source of diversification and this is especially true in the current environment. As an active manager, PIMCO structures diversified global portfolios to take advantage of yield curves that provide value relative to those that are expensive. So while Treasury and Japanese government bond yields in our view have a bias to the upside in 2004, we find good value in Euroland government bonds. Also, we are closely monitoring the U.K. yield curve, which has priced in rate hikes from the Bank of England. And other countries such as Sweden, Australia and New Zealand are at different stages in their economic cycle relative to the U.S. and their bond markets can provide opportunities for an active global manager.

For other articles on the municipal bond market, click here. SMART BOND INVESTING: GENIUS OR COMMON SENSE Three cheers for Joe Mysak. We applaud Mr. Mysak, a long-time columnist for Bloomberg, for having found what he calls "the smartest municipal bond investor in the world." This investor, Mr. Mysak says, retired at the relatively young age of 38 and replaced his salary with income from municipal bond investments. What makes this investor so smart in Mr. Mysak's eyes? He has a simple strategy derived from real-life experience. Among the pearls of wisdom he imparts: - Investors should regard municipal bonds as a secure base of income that dampens the volatility of an equity portfolio. Munis are a safe haven that generate cash. - The most egregious of all investor sins is paying fees to have someone "manage" your bonds. - Buy long-term bonds.

Our Perspective on Bond Investing Why Bonds? Over the past few years, in the wake of the bear market in stocks, investors have shown new interest in bonds and bond funds. The largest and best-known pension and endowment funds have always relied on bonds for a significant percentage of their assets. They do so because bonds can provide a portfolio with real returns above inflation, and help temper the ups and downs associated with pure equity investing. In fact, Mosaic's portfolio managers have earned a national reputation for bond management. Their goal is to provide benchmark or better returns at a risk level below their benchmarks. While this sounds like having your cake and eating it too, managers can achieve this goal by carefully monitoring the outlook for interest rates and shifting strategy accordingly. Bonds come in various shapes and sizes. The main categories are: Government Bonds -issued by the federal government and its agencies. These bonds are considered less risky than corporate bonds, and as a result pay less income.

It can be a union or a linkage, a relationship or a coalition. It can be a marriage or an alliance. But in investing terms, the word "bond" has a special meaning. A bond is a formal IOU issued by governments or corporations in return for a monetary loan. A bond offers a pre-defined rate of interest and a promise to repay the borrowed funds after a certain period. Bond fundamentals A bond functions like a loan. When you buy a bond, you lend money to the issuer. In exchange for the use of your money, the issuer promises to repay the principal (the amount you loaned) on a specific maturity date as well as interest payments, sometimes called the coupon rate, over the life of the loan. This transaction between the borrower and the lender (the bond purchaser) takes place on the primary market. Later on, the bond may be traded in what is called the secondary market. In this case, the bond owner sells the bond to a third party prior to the bond's maturity date. The price at which a bond trades on the secondary market may differ from its face value. That's because as interest rates change, the value of a bond also changes. If you buy or sell a bond before it matures, it may be worth more or less than the face value of the bond.

Ohio State University FactSheet Family and Consumer Sciences 1787 Neil Avenue, Columbus, OH 43210-1295 Investing in Bonds MM-0005-01 Ruth Anne Mears Generally, "savers" and "investors" have different objectives for their money. "Savers" plan to use their money in the next 3-5 years, while "investors" won't need their money for five years or longer. Many "savers" want liquidity or quick access to their money without penalty. Bonds provide a desirable saving or investment vehicle for many reasons. Bonds tend to be safer than stocks because if you hold bonds until the maturity date, you don't risk the principal. Plus, bonds can provide a regular, steady source of income (typically, interest payments are received every 6 months). For the long term, investors need to be willing to "tie up" money when investing in bonds. However, bonds tend to have a lower return than stocks over the long term.
