In bond markets, expectations of rate cuts at the start of the year have been turned on their head, sparking a sell-off. The direction for rates from here is tied to how long the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed and central bank policy. However, carry and selectivity remain king.
And beyond our in-depth asset class and financial market analysis, we explain how investors might prepare their portfolios better for climate change risks.

As always, we hope you enjoy the articles.
