Since 1889, we have aligned our efforts with our three guiding Principles That Endure: Service, Expertise, and Integrity.

About Northern Trust Asset Management
We are a premier asset management firm, focusing on delivering unique insights and superior risk-adjusted returns in partnership with our clients.
Global Fixed Income
Our research and portfolio management teams are fully integrated because we believe the combination of these skill sets and perspectives directly benefits our clients. Portfolio managers bring market knowledge of the structural and fundamental drivers of asset classes, sectors, and individual credits acquired through years of experience and research. Fundamental researchers provide a deeper analysis of individual issuers, examining risk and return opportunities across the entire capital structure while also incorporating non-financial risks into their analysis. Quantitative researchers provide a complementary skill set in the form of higher-level quantitative and programming skills that are applied to the development and improvement of both our security selection and overall investment processes.
The combination of these skills sets, combined with our macroeconomic research and scenario analysis, provides for a sophisticated, intuitive, and fundamental approach to making investment decisions. We view ourselves as managers of risk with our analytics integrated into our investment process, providing the common language we all speak. In addition to vendor systems, we have also built proprietary tools that allow our teams to accurately define and measure key risks.
Our investment team is supported by a robust infrastructure of traders, operations, client service, and dedicated risk management and systems professionals who provide the framework upon which our overall business is supported.
