TCW Expands Global Fixed Income Platform with Launch of Global Bond UCITS Fund
TCW, a premier global asset management firm, today announced the launch of the TCW Global Bond Fund, a subfund of TCW Funds, a Luxembourg-domiciled UCITS (the “Fund”), expanding the firm’s UCITS fixed income offerings and maximizing use of TCW’s full range of global bond capabilities.
The Fund provides actively managed exposure to global fixed income markets and is benchmarked to the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index (unhedged). The strategy is designed for investors and professional allocators seeking a globally diversified core plus bond allocation within a UCITS structure. The Fund employs a disciplined investment framework that integrates top-down macro and bottom-up analysis with active allocations across sovereign, credit, and securitized sectors, along with active currency positioning and sustainability considerations, supported by TCW’s deep global fixed income research platform. The Fund will be team managed and led by Bryan T. Whalen, Ruben Hovhannisyan, David Robbins, Jamie Patton, Michael Carrion, and Nick Verdi.
The launch builds on TCW’s decades-long experience managing global multi-sector bond strategies across market cycles. The new Fund reflects TCW’s commitment to scaling its core global fixed income strategies for investors outside of the U.S., grounded in the same disciplined, research driven approach that has defined the firm’s fixed income platform for more than 50 years.
“Given divergences in economic, monetary and fiscal policy, global bond markets should continue to offer compelling income, diversification, and relative-value opportunities for active investors,” said Bryan T. Whalen, CFA, Chief Investment Officer and Generalist Portfolio Manager at TCW. “This UCITS fund represents a natural extension of our long-standing global fixed income strategy, applying the same disciplined, risk-aware investment approach that has guided TCW’s fixed income platform for decades.”
The Fund’s institutional share class is priced at 0.45%, positioning it competitively within the global bond UCITS category1.
Globally, TCW manages over $166 billion in fixed income assets2.
