Calamos Introduces Global High Income Fund on Global Platform (UCITS) PR Newswire NAPERVILLE, Illinois and LONDON, July 27, 2012 -- A strategic investment solution for greater income potential with an attractive risk/reward profile NAPERVILLE, Illinois and LONDON, July 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Calamos Investments, a global investment management firm, is pleased to announce the introduction of the Calamos Global High Income Fund to its UCITS fund platform. The global, diversified fund is based on the institutional Calamos High Income Strategy that has been available to both U.S. and non-U.S. investors since November 1999. The Calamos Global High Income Fund invests dynamically across the credit quality spectrum focusing on the upper- and middle-credit quality tiers of the high yield bond market. The fund pursues income while avoiding exposure to more speculative or distressed high yield bonds. By investing primarily in companies with stronger corporate fundamentals and healthier balance sheets, the fund seeks to provide high income with an attractive risk/reward profile. "Institutional investors are expanding their view on strategies to generate income across their asset allocation. Against the backdrop of persistently low rates and yields, traditional fixed income – government and investment grade bonds – are challenged to deliver the needed income.
