Concern over rising budget deficits in several peripheral European countries have become an increasing focus for investors and cause for risk aversion trades. While Greece faces the largest budget deficit in Europe, ...

Jan. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Indonesia may have to reward
investors with higher yields than the Philippines to borrow $4
billion as a rally in emerging-market bonds slows after the

Feb. 17 (Bloomberg) -- Pacific Investment Management Co., manager of the world’s biggest bond fund, posted its best year in emerging markets by loading up on Brazilian debt ahead of the 2002 presidential elections.

In 2002, Pimco added to its Brazil holdings as ...
