ABOUT GAETANO PICCOLO
I am a Fixed Income Portfolio Manager managing discretionary portfolios for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, institutional investors and family offices.I currently oversee approximately €2Bn in assets under management, including €700M+ in discretionary mandates, alongside broader institutional portfolios within a multi-portfolio investment framework.My investment approach is built on a disciplined macro-to-micro process, combining macroeconomic regime analysis, interest rate dynamics and bottom-up credit selection to construct resilient, risk-adjusted portfolios across market cycles.I focus on- Duration and income-oriented fixed income strategies- Credit allocation across investment grade and selective high yield- Absolute return strategies with controlled equity exposure- Risk management through scenario analysis and drawdown controlI am particularly interested in how decision-making processes, data and technology — including AI — are reshaping portfolio management, especially within fixed income, where inefficiencies and market fragmentation continue to create opportunities.My international experience across the UK and the US, including executive education at Wharton, has strengthened my perspective on global markets and institutional investing.I am always interested in connecting with professionals, investors and institutions who share a long-term approach to capital allocation and a strong focus on fixed income and macro dynamics.Always open to exchanging ideas and perspectives.
