Spring webinar: Can current economic 'deceleration' actually accelerate investment portfolios?

Although unsettling geopolitical events, particularly in the middle east, dominate the headlines, the markets are still showing signs of recovery. There is a wealth of opportunities to be had in equities and fixed income, while commodities, particularly oil, gold, silver and copper, can provide diversification for our client portfolios during times of economic volatility.

In our latest webinar our clients’ questions raised some important discussion points. Richard Champion, Co-Chief Investment Officer at CGWM, and Stuart Dickson, Senior Investment Director at Adam & Company, gave their thoughts to some of the key topics raised including:

  • The effects of geopolitical turmoil on the global economy
  • How the upcoming elections and their outcomes could affect investment opportunities
  • Whether central banks are still sticking to their 2% inflation target
  • Which areas of fixed income can provide attractive investment returns?
  • Is the healthcare sector one to watch after the arrival of the ‘diabesity’ drugs?
