Square Mile downgrades trio of Richard Woolnough funds
M&G Optimal Income, Corporate Bond and Strategic Corporate Bond funds downgraded to an A rating after consistent underperformance
Square Mile has downgraded a trio of funds, worth over £7bn, run by M&G’s Richard Woolnough, alongside a £264m Legg Mason global bond fund, from AA to A in its latest ratings round-up.
Woolnough’s £2.2bn Optimal Income, £3.1bn Corporate Bond and £2.1bn Strategic Corporate Bond vehicles have all been demoted in the rankings due to “continued underperformance”.
Despite being billed as “flexible, all-weather fixed income strategies” that can outperform no matter the economic cycle, Square Mile said Woolnough’s duration positioning “has become something of a structural position” creating an “unintended bias reducing the flexibility of the funds to adapt to evolving market conditions”.
