Question asked

Locking in interest rates going forward

Hello James and crew. My question relates to securing an investment for income over the next several years where we are able to lock in current high rates. Our portfolio is similar to MMs Income portfolio with hybrids but have noted that in the past MM held bonds. Interested in your opinion please on purchasing Australian Government bonds available through the ASX (Fixed rate Treasury Bonds) or is there a better strategy in MM's view. Thanks as always Geoff.

Answer

Hi Geoff,

ASX listed Government Bonds are a simple option with a rate sheet here from the ASX, along with ETFs for corporate bond exposure – CRED for example which was highlighted in another question today is worth a look for fixed rate exposure.
