Qatar Bond

Qatar bond mutual funds and ETFs invest the majority of their assets... Qatar bond mutual funds and ETFs invest the majority of their assets in government and corporate debt of governments and corporations in Qatar. These funds can be actively or passively managed and may seek to track or outperform a particular benchmark. They may hedge foreign currency risk, or elect to leave themselves exposed to fluctuations in the Qatari Riyal. Depending on their mandate, a Qatar bond mutual fund or ETF may focus on investment-grade bonds, high-yield (a.k.a. junk bonds), or a mix of credit quality. Government is the largest issuer of debt in Qatar, at 37% of GDP as of 2024. Investors purchase Qatar bond mutual funds and ETFs to get both capital growth and income. These funds can vary significantly in terms of risk. A fund that exclusively invests in short-term Qatari government debt is likely to be more conservative than a fund that only invests in junk bonds, for example.
