Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe further expands its bond management team
Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe announces the arrival of Michael Longeard, high yield manager, and Natally Loaiza Santamaria, ESG bond analyst. They join its 12-person team of bond experts.

Didier Bouvignies, General Partner & Chief Investment Officer of Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe said: “Fixed-income products account for almost 50% of our assets under management and constitute an essential asset class for our activities.”
Emmanuel Petit, Head of Fixed-Income Management at Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe, said: “Our acknowledged expertise, our rich offering, and new market opportunities should allow us to accelerate our development in this asset class even further”.
In addition to the two target-date funds, R-co Target 2028 IG and R-co Thematic Target 2026 HY, that are now open to subscription, Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe offers a range of funds invested in a wide spectrum of fixed-income products, including its flagship fund R-co Conviction Credit Euro, with €1,350m in assets under management[1], R-co Valor Bond Opportunities, flexible, with a +4.5% performance since its inception in 2019[2] and R-co 4Change Net Zero Credit Euro, whose Article 9-certified strategy has just celebrated its third anniversary.
