We would like to welcome you to our 4th annual Asian Fixed Income Forum 2009.
It's being held on:
Wednesday 24h March
Singapore
Friday 26th March
Hong Kong
Attendance for issuers and all investors is FREE.
Today's challenging marketplace has led to many wholesale investors, private
banks and fund managers adopting a back-to-basics strategy as they search for
appropriate returns and a way to minimise risk. Against this backdrop, it has
never been more important for investors, issuers and intermediaries to meet
face-to-face and discuss their strategies for the year ahead.
This form will offer the most comprehensive review on the regional and global
markets, and why and how investors should now engage them in a search for the
highest returns and most appropriate diversification.
The day will be packed with content, panel discussions, presentations, workshops
and case studies, enabling you to learn from leading market professionals about
challenges and opportunities in 2009.
By attending the Asian Fixed Income Forum 2009, you will find out answers
to the following questions:
- What is in store for Asian rates and credit in the Year of the Ox?
- What lessons can Asia learn from the credit and liquidity crises?
- In a climate of credit spread widening, huge equity market corrections and
increased volatility - what should investors do with their investments?
- Are things really as bleak as they seem? Or will the current credit spreads
and vast amount of liquidity in Asia, which still needs to be invested, actually
offer great investment opportunities?
- What's safe aside from US Treasuries? Is cash the only real long-term
solution?
- Should investors be looking at commodities? Is this a sustainable asset class?
- Which is the forward indicator of markets: credit or equity?
- Where is the real risk: CDOs, CLOs or CDS? How far does counterparty risk,
specifically in relation to the monolines, pose systemic risk to the financial
system?
- How to make the shift towards more careful portfolio selection, less leverage
and more emphasis on portfolio managers' expertise and track record
- Should Asian investors shy away from structured credit indefinitely after what
we saw last year?
- Which emerging and frontier markets offer the greatest value in 2009?
- Access trades: where next?
- Asian high yield: does it represent good value for money at current levels?
Will private banks move their money from equities into high yield?
- Frontier markets: Are Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Mongolia and others really
viable?
- Is there value in buying Asian credit in local currencies? Or is it better to
either buy local credit in USD, or simply government bonds?
- Retail and private bank investors in Asia seem to have lost a lot of interest
in betting on products linked to CMS spreads and LIBOR corridor structures, for
example, because of bad experiences in 2006. What do issuers recommend?
The Forum has been designed for the following investors:
- Banks

Houses and Private Banks
