Following the news that Joshua Rank, lead fund manager of the Aviva Investors Global High Yield Bond fund has resigned from Aviva Investors, we have moved the fund’s Morningstar OBSR Analyst Rating ™ to Under Review. The fund previously held a Bronze Rating.  Mr Rank was based in Des Moines, Iowa and his resignation comes as part of the group’s decision to centralise its US high yield capability in one location (Chicago).  Several credit analysts have also left over the past year and we therefore believe it is appropriate to change the fund’s Rating while we gauge the impact of these departures on the fund’s management. We plan to discuss the changes with Todd Youngberg, who heads Aviva’s high yield capability, in the near future.
