Fixed Income Fund


 

GIMG’s Fixed Income Fund is, along with the Equity Fund, one of the two main pillars of our organization. We analyze corporate credit and monitor global macroeconomic trends to generate investment ideas for a portfolio benchmarked against the AGG.

Through pitch teams led by our indivdual VPs, analysts perform a complete analysis of the bond and pitch it to the rest of the fund. In the past, we have featured investment-grade, macroeconomic trends, and high-yield bonds desks.

Our active fund structure consists of one CIO, four VPs, 14 analysts as of date.

 
 

2023-2024 Outlook

Letter from our CIO

 

 

To our esteemed stakeholders, members, alums, and the Emory community at large,

Back in the day when I was a wee-little freshman, I barely knew what a stock was and I knew even less of what a bond was. Yet somehow, in the Fall of 2021, I found myself applying to join GIMG’s Fixed Income Fund all based on a whim of wanting to push myself to grow and learn about a space I had never really heard of before. Needless to say, applying to and joining GIMG was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

Looking back on these past few years, what’s amazing about GIMG is its community and camaraderie. Full of ambitious, hilarious, and kind people, GIMG has been a 2nd home to me with peers who all look out for each other and are always more than ready to offer the utmost support to see you succeed. Of course, I won’t deny that GIMG asks a lot of its members in terms of hard work, but it really is a place where if you give it your 100%, GIMG will return more than 100% back as well.

This year, I’m honored to take Celia Zhou’s mantle to serve as CIO for GIMG’s Fixed Income Fund. I’m extremely excited for the future of the fund and for the new analysts that’ll join us. I’m thankful to have found some of my closest friends and mentors through this organization, so it’s my commitment to give back to the GIMG community and continue further strengthening the culture of mentorship within the club and developing the same excitement about finance and investing my mentors had passed down to me.

I am so excited to lead the Fixed Income Fund this year, and I’m eager to support all of our current and new members in achieving their goals and growing into confident, intelligent people of GIMG.

Best,

Rishav Kumar
