Janus Henderson Investors is today announcing the launch of the Janus Henderson Tabula Euro Short Duration Income UCITS ETF (JHES).

The Fund aims to provide enhanced yield and capital preservation across various market cycles by investing in an actively managed portfolio of primarily short duration, investment grade debt securities. Investments may be across multiple sectors including certificates of deposit, treasury bills, government and government-related bonds, commercial paper, corporate bonds and ABS/MBS, with a focus on developed markets.

JHES is managed by established investors Daniel Siluk, Head of Global Short Duration & Liquidity, Addison Maier, Portfolio Manager on the Global Short Duration & Liquidity team, and Tim Winstone, Head of Investment Grade Credit. Together they manage $7.1 billion(1) in global short duration strategies.

Ignacio De La Maza, Head of EMEA & LatAm Client Group at Janus Henderson, said: “Short duration fixed income is an attractive proposition for investors as it offers higher income potential and the ability to lock-in higher yields if cash rates fall, the opportunity for capital appreciation through moderate use of duration, and exhibits lower volatility and lower interest rate sensitivity than traditional fixed income.”

By managing volatility effectively, employing a dynamic investment strategy, and a global approach to security selection, the team will aim to build an optimally liquid portfolio that generates income throughout all market cycles.

Daniel Siluk, Head of Global Short Duration & Liquidity at Janus Henderson, said: “Capital preservation and income generation serve as the driving force behind everything we do. We believe diversifying through short-duration bonds as well as having a global opportunity set results in better client outcomes. Our adaptive view to duration, our ability to find the best opportunities globally, and our robust framework for portfolio construction are designed to deliver consistent performance and effective yield for our clients.”
