Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT): Emerging Trends and Real-world Cases

For the best part of a decade, delivering income has been a battle. Low interest rates and bond yields have pushed investors to take greater risks to achieve high income. As US interest rates rise and bond yields spike higher, has the landscape changed? With cash potentially delivering an income in real terms, are we back to a more normal environment of bonds for income and equity for growth? What does this mean for portfolio positioning today?

Generating income of base rates plus 4.5% is not a simple task but it can be done with a multi-asset absolute return approach. It can also be done by avoiding taking unnecessary risks in traditional asset classes, which Fulcrum believes are likely to face a challenging return phase over the medium term.

In this session;

* We address the current income dilemma – how to generate income without taking too much risk
* We highlight the potentially low returns from traditional assets
* We suggest alternative solutions
* We provide the Fulcrum Income Solution

Join this session to learn how to achieve consistent income, low sensitivity to equities AND bonds as well as long-term capital preservation
