" ["fulltext"]=> string(1413) "

Bernie joins host Grace Ormsby to unpack how the economic downturn has been affecting different demographics, why many in the older age bracket are experiencing increased levels of anxiety, and what those people can do to preserve their nest egg and minimise their losses.

Bernie also delves into Industry Super Australia’s stance towards accessing superannuation early as part of the government’s stimulus measures, whether now is a good time for people with the means to contribute extra to their super, and industry fund plans for a road to recovery for both their members and the national economy.

Thanks Bernie, for sharing your insights with the nestegg podcast team!

Investors look to Asia for fixed income

Investors look to Asia for fixed income

By Reporter · July 17 2018

Reading:

Fixed-income investors around the world have turned their sights to Asia with “unmistakable” momentum, a new report has revealed.

According to S&P Global Ratings’ Ritesh Maheshwari, 2018 has so far been good for Asian bond markets, despite it generally being a “rough year”.

Describing the markets as possessing an “unmistakeable” momentum, Mr Maheshwari said governments and companies are extending the variety of debt offerings, and in turn, “global investors are positioning to grow their long-term presence in the region".

The managing director of market and franchise development’s commentary was informed by S&P’s global bond survey. The survey, conducted with HSBC, found that 91 per cent of global investors plan to increase their exposure to Asian credit markets in the next year. That’s up from the last four years’ 80 per cent average.

S&P said investors predict spreads will continue widening for sovereign and high yield debt, but remain optimistic, anticipating China’s economic growth will continue with a gradual slowing.

Investors also see infrastructure and telecoms opportunities, with default risk a minor concern.

The “surge” in interest is most apparent in non-Asian investors, with 88.2 per cent planning to increase exposure, reflecting a 12.8 per cent increase on the results from the second half of 2017.
