Background
Bonds or Fixed Income investments are of increasing size and importance in many Pension portfolios. Shrouded in jargon, variety and boredom they are often little understood by Trustees.
What are they? How do they work? What types are there? What Risks and Returns are there? What costs and flexibility is there?
Assuming no prior knowledge, this one day Briefing is designed to give an understanding as to the major Bond or Fixed Income investments, what they are, how they work, what affects their value, their risks and returns as well as importance for Pension Funds - all in clear understandable language.
