High yield, high potential: Why high yield deserves a place in your portfolio

Tuesday 1 July 2025
2.00pm BST

High yield bonds continue to offer attractive yields relative to history and have proved resilient through recent volatility. Join Faisal Islam, investment manager of the Baillie Gifford High Yield Bond Fund, as he explores:

  • Misconceptions about the asset class and why Faisal is excited about the return potential on offer.
  • Portfolio positioning in the wake of Liberation Day
  • The most attractive opportunities in the current market

We expect the webinar to last approximately 45 minutes in total, which allows time for Q&A. If you are unable to attend but would like a copy of the recording of the webinar, please still complete the registration form.

Please note, as with any investment capital is at risk.
