"Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond delivered robust relative performance in 2025, beating its benchmark by 6.50% in a year marked by extreme macro volatility. Heading into 2026, the manager maintains a cautious duration posture (3.1) and high EM exposures coupled with credit hedges."
In Q4 2025, the Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond fund returned +0.56% outperforming its benchmark which fell -0.46%. For the full year, the fund returned +0.45% versus -6.05% for the indicator, representing a +6.50% outperformance. 2025 was dominated by political and fiscal shocks, primarily catalyzed by Donald Trump’s US election victory, trade tariff anxieties, and structural fiscal expansions in the US and Europe. Performance was strongly driven by EM hard-currency debt and corporate credit (financials and energy), while currency strategies—especially the decline of the US dollar—were the main detractor. Looking forward, the fund is positioned defensively with a 3.1 duration, selective short positions in core developed rates (US, UK, France, Japan), and a focus on EM debt paired with hedging instruments to cushion against spread widening.
