Welcome back to a special edition of the SB Talks podcast! In today's episode, CEO Vincent O'Neill speaks with Chief Investment Officer Nick Ryder to explore Nick's recent fixed income review and dissect the current economic landscape.

Australia's inflation numbers have come in hotter than expected, opening discussions as to whether the RBA is done with rate rises yet. Nick provides valuable insights into the factors driving inflation, the impact on interest rates, and the delicate balance between preserving economic growth and taming inflation. From high-quality government bonds to investment grade and high yield corporate credit, the recent fixed income review underscores the importance of different portfolio construction tools, such as government bonds, corporate credit, and both fixed and floating rate instruments to navigate evolving market conditions.
