As tariff news has died down, markets have come flying back in the last few months.
“But we do have a world now where the US tariff rate on average is around 18%,” observes Pendal’s head of government bond strategies, Tim Hext.
“That is not a world we have seen for almost 100 years, not since World War II.”
But it’s an environment made for active investors, says Tim in this new short podcast.
It can take years to understand the full impact of trade tariffs, yet markets tend to be very short-term focused, he says.
“That does present a lot of opportunities for an active manager,” says Tim.
“It gives does give us plenty of good opportunities to add value in active portfolios, and that’s what we’re doing at the moment.”

Amy Xie Patrick: Finding the ‘sweet spot’ for fixed income funds
Many fixed-income investors will soon be looking for new opportunities as prudential regulator APRA starts to phase out bank hybrids from 2027.
Bank hybrids have been a popular cornerstone of income-generating portfolios. But did they truly live up to their promise – and is there a better strategy?
Pendal’s head of income strategies Amy Xi Patrick answers both questions in a new article.
Amy argues bank hybrids are ill-suited to serving a defensive role; not as easily bought and sold as investors might believe; and may not meet their “higher income potential”.
Investors can find better alternatives, she believes
“We start by mapping investment objectives to assets that have a proven track record of delivering against those objectives.
That means we don’t have to accept market narratives about hybrids (or any other asset types) that have not been entirely accurate.”
In this article, Amy describes a portfolio construction method she believes is better suited to producing a regular, stable and repeatable income stream and capital growth to help offset the effects of inflation.
