Financial services group Dixon Advisory has launched a fixed-income fund aimed at giving retail investors an avenue to invest in credit instruments that have traditionally been open to institutional investors only.

The new offering, the Australian Masters Yield Fund No 1 (AMYF), will be unlisted and initially issue 500,000 shares at $100 each.

Dixon Advisory is looking to raise up to $50 million before oversubscriptions.

"The fixed-income market continues to present investors with attractive investment opportunities. Despite the tightening of credit spreads since the global financial crisis, there remain elements of the fixed-income universe which present investors with attractive risk-adjusted returns," AMYF director Alan Dixon said.

One of the objectives of the new fund is to take advantage of fixed-income investment opportunities that lie outside high-grade corporate bonds.
