Ten questions and ten answers, to understand the SPDB AXA Ji Xin 90-day rolling short-term bond fund

author:AXA SPDB Asset Management

Look at the underlying assets

1. In the long run, why can household basic fund management continue to allocate short-term bond funds?

Historically, due to the short maturity time of short-term bond assets, the macro changes and policy risks faced are limited, and the overall drawdown is relatively small, which can better balance investors' needs for profitability and risk control.

Taking short- and medium-term interest rate bonds as an example, the 0-3 year index of government bonds and government and financial bonds has achieved positive returns in the past ten full years, and the drawdown rate is less than -1.5% (data source: Wind, as of 2024/3/31; the past performance of the index is not indicative of the future.

2. There has been some volatility in the bond market recently, why is it still possible to allocate short-term bond funds in this market environment?

In general, the longer the average maturity time of the bond assets held by the fund, the longer the portfolio duration and the higher the level of potential interest rate risk it needs to take. As a result, long-term bonds are characterized by higher returns and higher volatility; On the other hand, if you invest in bonds with shorter maturities, the volatility of the fund portfolio will be more limited.

Therefore, we can see that since its inception, the historical maximum drawdown of the short-term bond fund index (-0.14%) is significantly better than that of the medium- and long-term pure bond fund index (-2.71%), and it is more suitable for investors who pay attention to comprehensive investment experience in the context of increased bond market volatility (data source: Wind, as of 2024/3/31; the past performance of the index is not indicative of the future. The market is risky, and investors need to be cautious. )
