Is the role global convertible bonds play not appreciated enough? We asked Cristina Jarrin and Mikaël Dauvert from Irivest IM

The global convertible bond market has evolved significantly in recent years and is gaining popularity. Yet, for many investors, it remains a relatively undiscovered asset class.

To learn more about this market, we spoke with two seasoned experts – Senior Portfolio Managers: Cristina Jarrin and Mikaël Dauvert from Irivest IM, an independent European asset management company. Irivest IM was formed through the merger of Chahine Capital, known for its quantitative equity strategies, and Dynasty Asset Management, a specialist in convertible bonds and corporate credit.

Beyond discussing the broader convertible bond landscape, our guests also shared insights into the Dynasty Global Convertibles B EUR fund.
