Japanese bond ETFs attract a record $1.5 billion in net inflows in 2026 so far, Morningstar say
This year, Japanese bond exchange traded funds have experienced an unprecedented surge in inflows, driven by increasing government bond yields that enhance the appeal of Japan's debt for investors. European market participants are diversifying their portfolios, moving away from US dollar assets due to growing uncertainties surrounding the dollar's reliability as a safe haven. Consequently, Japanese bonds present an attractive option with solid yields and developed-market risk.
