"PGIM is positioning for a sustained, high-quality fixed-income 'carry market' under a resilient global 'muddle through' economic backdrop, utilizing active sector rotation and structured credit overweights."
The PGIM Global Total Return Fund outperformed its Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index benchmark on a gross basis in Q3 2025. The fixed income bull market persisted as treasury yields declined and curves steepened, supported by a 25-bp rate cut by the Federal Reserve. PGIM models a 'muddle through' global economic scenario of stable yet moderate growth and normalizing inflation. The fund is positioned to capture yield via overweights in corporate credit, emerging market debt, and high-quality structured products (CLOs and CMBS), while managing risks associated with U.S. fiscal policy, tariffs, and tight credit spreads. Underperforming segments are actively avoided by favoring higher-quality tranches (such as public BB loans) and selectively rotating into sectors like midstream energy.
