For those who seek even more diversification, without the need to manage individual assets, there are Two FCI Key, which allow to delegate the administration to a professional team, which optimizes the selection of assets to improve the risk-back relationship, explains Botta. On the one hand, mentions the Balanz Fund Strategy III, that “invests in corporate and sovereign bonds from Mercosur and Chile countries, including Argentina. His estimated yield around 6% annual, allowing a broader diversification within the region. “on the other, ponders the Balanz background savings in dollarsthat “it focuses exclusively in private debt of main Argentine companies, with a diversified portfolio in strategic sectors such as Oil & Gas and Energy “.

Matías Waitzel, president of AT Investments, Remarate to this medium that for a more speculative profile, it may be interesting to add to the portfolios the sovereign bonus Global 2025 (GD35)which offers a Internal return rate (IRR) of approximately 11.5%. “This instrument has New York law jurisdiction, which provides an additional layer of legal protection to investors, in high uncertainty contexts,” raises.
In turn, Botta suggests the BOPREALES (Bonds issued by the Central Bank to facilitate the payment of the commercial debt of importers) since they represent an “attractive alternative”, for several reasons: “It offers yields close to 10% annual and expire within the current mandate, which reduces uncertainty when depending on the acting government, and has a performance very similar to that of sovereigns”. Within this category, Balanz’s advisor chooses Bpob7, that stands out for its Approximate 13%, “If the put is executed on April 30, 2026 and having to keep it at maturity its IRR close to 10% is still very attractive.”

In that sense, it stands out to Oil & Gas sector (With a 40% of weighting the portfolio) already companies such as YPF (YPFD), Pampa Energía (Pamp) and Gas Transporter del Sur (TGSU2), that “have demonstrated resilience in adverse macroeconomic scenarios and have significant potential thanks to the development of Vaca Muerta and the framework of the incentive regime for large investments (Rigi).” Also values al Banking sector (with 45% of its portfolio): “With the reactivation of credits, financial institutions could see a sustained recovery.
