| Did you know that in 2010 the international bond market was worth US $49.7trillion. The global bond market is huge and has grown at 9.8% on average over the last ten years.
Yet, most Indian investors have little or no understanding of the benefits of fixed income. The asset class offers a means to diversify and protect investors' portfolios making it worth learning about.
One of the key benefits is that investments are lower risk and more stable than the higher risk asset classes of property and equities and fixed income securities are often counter-cyclical. Fixed income offers a broad spectrum of products, risks, returns and maturities to provide a diversified and balanced portfolio solution for investors. |
