Bus/Financial - Economics / investment funds and bonds
English term or phrase: neutral duration positioning
I found long-term/short-term/general duration positioning but not this one :S

I'd appreciate your help!

CONTEXT:
We also favour yield curve steepeners and neutral duration positioning, as we expect continued easing by the Federal Reserve.

posicionamiento de duración neutral
Explanation:
This is quite a common term in bond investing.
It means that the duration of the fund (that is, of the bonds that constitute the portfolio) is the same as the duration of the benchmark. A higher duration would be "long duration", and a lower one would be "short duration".

You can say "posicionamiento de duración neutral" or "posicionamiento neutral en términos de duración", for example.
