Global bond markets have witnessed a rise in yields, reaching their highest levels in years due to ongoing sell-offs. The average return on the global treasury index stood at 2.68%, up from 1.84%, with annual yield volatility decreasing to 37 basis points. The increase in yields enhances the attractiveness of fixed-income investments, despite continued upward pressures caused by rising energy prices and the expanding issuance of government debt instruments, which raise borrowing costs and drive global yields higher. Notably, U.S., German, and British treasury bonds reached multi-year highs, and Japanese bond yields hit their highest levels in years for the first time in a long period.
