A Market to Revisit

Emerging markets ("EM") government bonds, particularly those denominated in local currencies, have bounced back in 2016. It's time to look again at what they can offer. A Market to Revisit.

Emerging markets (”EM”) government bonds, particularly those denominated in local currencies, have bounced back in 2016. It’s time to look again at what they can offer. A Market to Revisit.

The past few years have not been kind to EM local currency bonds. Falling commodity prices and concerns about slowing global growth resulted in weak performance across many EM asset classes. Local currency bonds were particularly impacted by the robust U.S. dollar, which remained strong throughout 2015, and the prospect of four potential Federal Open Market Committee rate hikes in 2016. These headwinds caused investors to push valuations down to levels of extreme weakness, particularly on several EM currencies, which may have been oversold heading into 2016.

Q1 Tailwinds Provide Support

However, the Federal Reserve’s sentiment may have changed. The Fed appears to be taking a more dovish stance and the market is now expecting fewer rate hikes this year. Some immediate results could include a pullback in the U.S. dollar and the re-emergence of a risk-on appetite. These tailwinds have been strengthened by the first quarter rebound in commodity prices and the prospect of pro-growth political reform in several EM countries.

EM local currency bonds benefited from these supportive factors, which contributed to a return of 11.02% in the first quarter, as represented by the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM Diversified Index, significantly outperforming EM hard currency sovereign bonds and corporates. Every country in the index had both positive local bond market returns and currency appreciation for the period. Dedicated local currency funds also received significant inflows towards the end of the quarter.

Positive Flows as Investors Take Notice

Why the positive flows? After years of volatility and weak performance, EM local currency bonds may be underrepresented in many investors’ portfolios. In addition to market conditions being favorable in the first quarter, local currency bonds have some particularly attractive characteristics that stem from two distinct sources of return they provide: local interest rates and currencies.

Because of these distinct drivers of return, local currency EM bonds have exhibited low historical correlations with other segments of the fixed income market, especially core U.S. investment grade sectors, as shown below. Local currency EM bonds have also historically provided higher yields versus other EM bond sectors, with an investable universe that tends to be skewed more towards higher quality issuers. For example, 84% of local currency EM government bonds were rated investment grade at the end of the quarter, versus 63% of those denominated in hard currencies, as measured by the BofA Merrill Lynch Emerging Markets External Sovereign Index.

These unique drivers of return are also sources of risk, and should be considered along with credit, economic, political and other risks associated with EM investments.

We believe that local currency EM bonds may potentially provide unique diversification benefits within a global fixed income portfolio, with both potentially higher yields and higher credit quality versus other EM fixed income sectors. For investors who have reduced their exposure in recent years, we believe it is a market worth revisiting.

Investors interested in this space may find easy access to local currency denominated bonds issued by emerging markets governments through VanEck Vectors J.P. Morgan EM Local Currency Bond ETF (EMLC).
