The sharp rise in Japanese government bond (JGB) yields "has coincided with a growing appetite for fixed income assets from European investors and a growing interest in diversifying away from traditional income sources like U.S. dollar assets," said Shannon Kirwin, senior principal, fixed income strategies at Morningstar.
The 10-year JGB yield reached 2.93% earlier this month, its highest since the mid 1990s according to LSEG data.
This year, Japanese bond exchange traded funds have experienced an unprecedented surge in inflows, driven by increasing government bond yields that enhance the appeal of Japan's debt for investors. European market participants are diversifying their portfolios, moving away from US dollar assets due to growing uncertainties surrounding the dollar's reliability as a safe haven. Consequently, Japanese bonds present an attractive option with solid yields and developed-market risk.
"At the same time, uncertainty around the U.S. dollar's safe-haven status has led investors to seek greater diversification in their fixed-income portfolios. Against this backdrop, Japanese bonds offer an attractive proposition: developed-market risk, substantial yields, and a counterweight to U.S. dollar dominance," Kirwin said.
