It can be downloaded at the SSRN website. http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1441894 Abstract: Frontier market debt is becoming increasingly attractive as an asset class, supported by the economic development of the less developed emerging markets. Analysis of the constituents of this off-benchmark asset class shows that allocation to it can potentially result in higher yield and better diversification. The authors argue that frontier fixed income should be included in strategic asset allocation using a technique known as reverse asset allocation.

Learning about bonds trading will depend a bit on which country you are, and which securities market you will want to work with. You can choose to trade on your own account, or to get a job with a stockbroking or other company that trades in bonds. I would suggest it could be better to work for a company, you will learn in a professional working environment, you will make your early mistakes with your employer's money, and you will see much of the inside of the market. If you want to read about the skills, there are a lot of sites and articles available if you search on www.google.com. However, I would rather look for the registered training institutes. I have used the exams of the South African Institute of Financial Markets (http://www.saifm.co.za/careerchoice.htm), and seen material from the UK one, the Financial Services Authority (www.fsa.gov.uk) but each country will probably have a similar regulator who will prescribe some examination and certification relevant to the local market.
