Institutional Investor News is proud to announce the winners of the 2008 20 Rising Stars of Fixed Income.

In selecting finalists for our second edition, we tried to be representative of the various products that comprise the fixed-income markets. As you will see, this year’s 20 Rising Stars of Fixed Income have moved beyond traditional bonds to focus on high-yield instruments, derivatives, mortgage-backed securities, commodities, credit products and other assets. Furthermore, they specialize in a vast array of disciplines, including portfolio management, trading, research, syndication, strategy, technology and consulting, and represent markets around the world – from Seattle to New York and from London to Johannesburg.

Selecting the final 20 Rising Stars was a difficult task, as many outstanding individuals were nominated. We would like to thank the nominees and those who nominated them for making this list possible, and we look forward to charting the professional progress of our Rising Stars in the years to come.
