Legg Mason Education Series - Part 3 - What can global fixed income offer your clients?

Benchmark tracking was long seen as a staple measure of equities and portfolio performance, providing portfolio and fund managers a reliable yardstick to make informed investment decisions. Since economic tumult of the GFC, investors have grown increasingly wary of this rigid and doctrinal investment methodology, with many questioning its reliability and responsiveness in the face of incessant market fluctuations.

In this Legg Mason’s adviser education video, Tad Fetter, Director and Head of Business Development at Brandywine Global, speaks with Money Management about how Brandywine is navigating the challenges for fixed income asset class in the new US administration, and the benefits of adopting an unconstrained, benchmark-agnostic, investment approach.
