Fixed Income Strategies
A pioneer of active investing and one of the first active bond managers, MFS offers strategies spanning the global bond market.

We provide comprehensive fixed income research, trading and management capabilities.
Multi-Sector + Sector-Specific
We offer a range of multi-sector and sector-specific strategies with diverse investment objectives.
Long-term Lens & Expertise
We apply our long-term lens and expertise to exploit opportunities within short-term oriented markets.
Outcomes
Transparency
Transparency into how assets are invested and managed.
Active Returns
