This month’s fund in focus is the Franklin Templeton Global Bond Fund. The Fund has a very wide investment brief and achieves its returns by taking advantage of value opportunities in global bond markets, taking positions on currencies and focusing on income. This strategy stood to it over 2022 when it was one of the few bond funds to show a gain over the course of the year (see chart below). The fund mainly invests in debt securities of any quality issued by governments and government related entities located in any developed or emerging markets.
