The cost of sitting still
Income opportunities in the new regime

National Briefings | Invitation
Brisbane | Melbourne | Sydney | Adelaide | Perth

In recent years Australian investors have done well from the high and relatively stable income offered by term deposits and bank hybrids. But the environment is changing. Bank hybrids are being phased out, while yields on bank term deposits are no longer as attractive relative to other opportunities. Join us for a series of national briefings, where our lead portfolio managers from the Schroders Multi-Asset and Fixed Income team will take a deep dive into the structural dynamics changing Australian and global fixed income markets, and the emerging opportunities for investors seeking lower risk income for their portfolio.

Please click the register button below to select the session you'd like to attend. Spaces are limited, so we encourage you to respond as soon as possible.

As always, we welcome questions from attendees whether pre-submitted or live on the day. You can submit questions when completing your registration form. CPD points will be awarded to attendees.
