Join us for an insightful discussion on the dual investment landscape of high yield bonds and ESG principles. Discover why insurers are increasingly drawn to high yield bonds for their potential capital efficient returns, and delve into the nuanced debate surrounding ESG rhetoric versus reality in investment practices.

Overview:
Historically many insurers have steered away from high yield bonds, perceiving them to be excessively risky.  We analyse the asset class in more detail to correct some of the misconceptions and identify which parts of the high yield market might be most appropriate for insurers.
As ESG becomes an ever more prominent issue for insurers, we discuss the different investment approaches that are being considered and the extent to which these will actually achieve the desired real world outcomes.

We are keen to make this webinar interactive and would welcome any questions you have in advance by emailing our Events Team (Events@InsightInvestment.com).
