Inflation - Villain or Hero?
Inflation is back with a vengeance after years in hiding. Is it here to stay? Should we fear it, or could it be a force for good? And is it kryptonite for bond investors?
In this podcast by Aberdeen, Fixed Income Investment Specialist Peter Marsland and his fearless team of inflation watchers answer all these questions and more.
The global financial services market is expected to grow from USD20,490 billion in 2020 to USD 22,515 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. With rising interest rates on the horizon, the banking sector will likely stand to benefit from an increased profitability. We recommend the Fidelity Global Financial Services fund which takes into account the industry's technological transformation, cyclical recovery, and demographic trends when selecting the underlying securities.
The US Federal Reserve kickstarted the tapering of its quantitative easing programme in November 2021 and is expected to resume its tightening monetary cycle soon. While this may increase market volatility, preferred securities should remain a compelling asset class in 2022. Preferred securities, with their high-yielding buffer and strong credit fundamentals, were resilient against other major fixed income sectors during these uncertain times.
Join the speaker Janice from Manulife Investment Management as she shares her views on preferred securities and how this asset class could be helpful for investors navigating this changing global economic landscape.
