QUICK TIP - Fixed Income - What is it, and how does it sit in a portfolio?

Published: July 30, 2022, 10 p.m.

There are many asset classes with various risk profiles that investors need to be aware of. If you take a look at your super, you\u2019ll often see Fixed Income in your investment options. This Quick Tip is with Camilla Love, the founder and Managing Director of ETF provider eInvest. We discussed fixed income, what to watch out for and what role is in a portfolio mix.

"If you're looking at a fixed income fund that is returning 6% or more per annum, you really need to lift that hood, look at what's in it and understand the volatility and return profile of fixed income because if fixed income's not there to be your insurance policy, it's there for something else, and you need to understand that when putting a portfolio together."
