E32 - Protecting Yield in Times of Volatility

The season of volatility is upon us, bringing with it a correction that is hard to ignore. However, there’s light at the end of the tunnel, according to Mark Raes, Chris Heakes and Matt Montemurro. In this episode our experts discuss government bonds as a safe haven on the fixed income side of the portfolio, as well as other ways to navigate uncertainty in the market. For greater upside, they also examine emerging markets and financials as two satellite exposures that can hold their ground in the long-term. Read the episode summary.
