High Yield Emerging Market Bonds
High-yield emerging market bonds are issued by governments or
companies in developing countries.
Due to their risk, high-yield emerging market bonds offer a substantially higher yield than developed countries government or investment
grade corporate bonds. Risk is primarily related to the ability
and willingness of the issuing companies or countries to honour
their debt obligations.
The interest-rate spread between emerging market bonds and government
bonds is even more volatile than high-yield bonds, although both
generally respond to similar forces.
