Bus/Financial - Investment / Securities / Market update for money market SICAV fund
French term or phrase: portage
Hi

I am translating a newsletter for a SICAV (Money Market Euro) fund and there is a section which states that the fund has been repositioned in order to be able to generate returns during the expected period of interest rate rises. This has been done via "une sensibilité taux très faible et un portage au travers d'une sensibilité crédit légèrement positive".

What is the correct investment term for "portage" here?

Thanks in advance,

Mark
