Period of Steepening
• Rates are biased upwards and expected to harden over next
12-18 months
• Potential opportunity for reinvestment theme
• Short Duration papers will likely get repriced significantly
above their current levels
• Money market and short bond segment will be benefitted from
reinvesting at higher yields
• Longer duration bonds will face a negative MTM impact
Attractive play on rising yields
Theme to Play - Reinvestment

Money Markets
7
• The budget announcement and the borrowing plan for FY 21 & FY 22 were a surprise to debt market participants
• Sell of 10-30 bps on the entire curve , short end yields are higher by 30 bps and long bonds approximately 10-15 bps
• MTM impact on money markets will be limited due to the low duration. However as you keep reinvesting you collect higher YTM
• We believe rising rates are here to stay. RBI is likely to keep shifting the yield curve higher gradually so as to avoid any liquidity shocks to the economy

• Credits as an asset class have the potential to
reward long term investors consistently over long
investment periods
• During normal markets, the credit risk category has
outperformed the short term category
• However, when things go wrong, the under
performance can be stark, as evidenced by the sharp
kink in the left tail
• Key to managing a good credit portfolio is to avoid
mistakes
Normal Market
Conditions
• Yields across the curve have hardened by ~40 bps in a relatively short span
• We anticipate the next leg of the selloff to be more gradual. The reinvestment theme is an ideal play in rising rate environments
• Credits continue to remain attractive from a risk reward perspective give the improving macro fundamentals.
• Actively managed low duration strategies playing the reinvestment theme ideal to mitigate MTM risks.
• Selective allocations to AA Credits may add ‘carry’ to existing fixed income portfolios.
