La experiencia colectiva del equipo Global Macro de Morgan Stanley Investment Management busca ofrecer acceso eficiente a los mercados y conocimiento profundo de infraestructuras únicas en más de 130 países. Los flujos cruzados en los mercados globales actuales presentan desafíos únicos para los inversores. Ya sea por posibles guerras comerciales, los avances de China en inteligencia artificial, el compromiso de la OTAN de aumentar el gasto en defensa, el retorno de Argentina al capitalismo o la revalorización de la moneda de Taiwán, la capacidad de interpretar las implicaciones de inversión nunca ha sido tan crucial.
En opinión del equipo de Morgan Stanley IM, estos flujos cruzados inevitablemente dan lugar a errores de valoración e ineficiencias en el mercado, lo que a su vez crea oportunidades de inversión para quienes cuentan con los recursos, la experiencia y la flexibilidad para descubrirlas. A continuación, se explica cómo la estrategia de Macro Global busca precisamente eso, y capturar valor para nuestros inversores.
¿Cómo puede beneficiar las rentabilidades absolutas de Global Macro a las carteras?
Como una estrategia de rentabilidades absolutas, Global Macro busca ofrecer a los inversores los siguientes objetivos clave:
- Rentabilidades ajustadas al riesgo consistentemente sólidas.
- Caídas limitadas en términos absolutos y relativas a otras clases de activos.
- Diversificación efectiva de cartera, con sensibilidad cercana a cero frente a los mercados tradicionales de acciones y bonos.
Estos objetivos ofrecen a los inversores una amplia flexibilidad en cuanto a la asignación de la estrategia Global Macro:
- Alternativa líquida. Global Macro suele a implementarse en vehículos de liquidez diaria, buscando beneficios históricos de diversificación sin empaquetar los riesgos del mercado tradicional.
- Complemento a la renta fija. La estrategia busca busca los beneficios de la renta fija —rentabilidad y mitigación de caídas— pero con sensibilidad limitada a cambios en tipos de interés, diferenciales de crédito y renta variable.
- Puente entre bonos y acciones. El retorno histórico de Global Macro por encima de los T-bills a 90 días lo sitúa entre la prima de renta fija a largo plazo y la de renta variable.
- Asignación flexible según la visión del mercado. Los inversores pueden ponderar más la estrategia cuando los activos tradicionales parecen caros, y reducirla cuando el panorama para dichos activos es más positivo.
La ventaja diferencial de Global Macro
Red de alcance amplio:
El equipo multidisciplinario de Global Macro está compuesto por más de 50 profesionales de inversión en Boston, Londres, Singapur, Nueva York, Washington, D.C., Abu Dhabi y Hong Kong, y cubre un universo de más de 130 países. La estrategia emplea un proceso de inversión descentralizado orientado a una construcción de cartera imparcial, donde el capital se asigna a posiciones con el perfil de riesgo/rentabilidad más atractiva.
Enfoque intenso en países:
El equipo de inversión genera ideas a través de un enfoque intenso en países individuales, especialmente aquellos que están en proceso de cambio estructural. Por ejemplo, actualmente, países como Egipto, Kazajistán y Argentina están implementando reformas positivas en política monetaria y fiscal, tipos de cambio y empoderamiento del sector privado.
Potencial de rentabilidad con riesgo preciso:
La investigación propia de Global Macro también identifica los factores de riesgo que pueden generar una rentabilidad positiva, y que pueden implementarse como posiciones largas o cortas, al tiempo que se eliminan o evitan factores que no aportan valor.
Acceso a los mercados:
El trading es otra otra característica clave que distingue a Global Macro, gracias a un equipo de 14 personas en operaciones y trading integrado en el equipo. La experiencia colectiva del equipo busca ofrecer acceso eficiente los mercados y un conocimiento profundo de infraestructuras de mercado únicas en 130 países. Esta infraestructura permite una amplitud sin precedentes, eficiencias únicas y ejecuciones rentables.
Conclusión

Risk considerations:
There is no assurance that a portfolio will achieve its investment objective. Portfolios are subject to market risk, which is the possibility that the market values of securities owned by the portfolio will decline and that the value of portfolio shares may therefore be less than what you paid for them. Market values can change daily due to economic and other events (e.g., natural disasters, health crises, terrorism, conflicts and social unrest) that affects markets, countries, companies, or governments. It is difficult to predict the timing, duration and potential adverse effects (e.g., portfolio liquidity) of events. Accordingly, you can lose money investing in this portfolio. Please be aware that this portfolio may be subject to certain additional risks. In general, equity securities’ values also fluctuate in response to activities specific to a company. Investments in foreign markets entail special risks such as currency, political, economic, and market risks. The risks of investing in emerging market countries are greater than risks associated with investments in foreign developed countries. Fixed-income securities are subject to the ability of an issuer to make timely principal and interest payments (credit risk), changes in interest rates (interest-rate risk), the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity (market risk). In a rising interest rate environment, bond prices may fall and may result in periods of volatility and increased portfolio redemptions. Longer-term securities may be more sensitive to interest rate changes. High yield securities (“junk bonds”) are lower-rated securities that may have a higher degree of credit and liquidity risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities (MBS and ABS) are sensitive to early prepayment risk and a higher risk of default and may be hard to value and difficult to sell (liquidity risk). They are also subject to credit, market and interest rate risks. Certain U.S. government securities purchased by the Portfolio, such as those issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. It is possible that these issuers will not have the funds to meet their payment obligations in the future. Real estate investment trusts are subject to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real estate and they are sensitive to such factors as management skills and changes in tax laws. Derivative instruments can be illiquid, may disproportionately
increase losses and may have a potentially large negative impact on the Portfolio’s performance. Illiquid securities may be more difficult to sell and value than publicly traded securities (liquidity risk). By investing in investment company securities, the portfolio is subject to the underlying risks of that investment company’s portfolio securities. In addition to the Portfolio’s fees and expenses, the Portfolio would generally bear its share of the investment company’s fees and expenses.
There is no guarantee that any investment strategy will work under all market conditions, and each investor should evaluate their ability to invest for the long-term, especially during periods of downturn in the market.
