Which investment solutions to consider to face inflation and rising interest rates?
Accelerating inflation, upward pressure on interest rates: what are the impacts for investors? What can we expect in the current environment?
After many years of low or even negative interest rates in Europe, inflationary pressures are causing yields to rise in the bond markets. The war in Ukraine and the sanctions against Russia have reinforced this dynamic by pushing up the prices of energy (oil, gas) and foodstuffs (wheat, corn in particular). The Fed has already started to raise its key rates and investors expect the ECB to follow the same path by the end of the year. In this context, bond markets are under pressure: when rates rise, the value of outstanding securities falls. Equity markets are also sensitive to central bank policy. What can we expect in the coming months? What are the implications for investors? Listen to the analysis of Matthieu Grouès, Managing Director at Lazard Frères Gestion, at the FIF event
