The approach provides a Nordic/Global corporate credit exposure with low geopolitical risk and a sound ESG profile.

Pareto Bond Funds - January update

Norges Bank, Sveriges Riksbank, and the Federal Reserve held interest rate meetings without making any changes. The ECB has held its meeting in the first days of February, likewise with no changes in the central bank key rate. American and Norwegian interest rates rose marginally, while those in Europe and Sweden fell marginally. Increased public budgets, which are debt-financed, and a world order with increased trade frictions may lead to price pressure; risk of inflation cannot therefore be ruled out.

The Nordic credit market has good liquidity, and the primary market was active in January, following a record setting 2025. Several issuances were made with longer maturities to take advantage of the relatively low credit spreads.
