Abstract:
The article examines the benefits of portfolio diversification for South African, Nigerian, Ghanaian and Kenyan fixed income investors diversifying their bond portfolios in the Malaysian sovereign sukuk market. The results show that the Malaysian sukuk market has a negative unconditional correlation with the South African bond market, implying better diversification benefits for these investors.
