Nick Lincoln at HUM South Africa 2022
Bonds: The Great Reset
At the Humans Under Management South Africa 2022 event, Nick Lincoln presented on the evolving role of bonds in investment portfolios. Lincoln, a seasoned financial adviser, challenges traditional views on fixed income investments.
This talk addresses the critical question: Are bonds still a viable option for income seekers in retirement? Lincoln explores how the current economic landscape and the historical performance of bonds may undermine their perceived safety.
Key insights from the presentation include:
- Bonds have failed to provide adequate returns, particularly in the face of rising inflation.
- Traditional beliefs about the safety of bonds versus equities are based on misconceptions.
- A paradigm shift is necessary; advisers should consider reallocating client portfolios away from bonds to more sustainable investments.
- The importance of educating clients about the risks associated with fixed income investments.
Watching this video will equip financial advisers with practical insights to reassess client portfolios, enhance client education, and adapt to the changing investment landscape.
