The Australian Guide to Fixed Income

Protect your wealth and generate a reliable cash flow

When investing funds generated from years of hard work, many investors look for options that give them capital stability, while also generating a reliable income.

But deposit accounts barely keep up with inflation and shares can experience a capital wipe-out in just days. That’s why more and more investors are turning to investment grade, Government and Corporate Bonds.

Receive reliable income throughout the year

Unlike stocks, a bond's performance isn't linked to a company's share price. A bond is essentially a loan with fixed terms, which means you receive regular and consistent income payments at set intervals during the year. This allows you to relax and focus on other things without worrying about the fluctuations of the stock market.

It’s a smart way to diversify

With bonds available from companies in industries as varied as banking, construction, infrastructure, insurance, transport, airlines, retailing and more, it’s easy to ensure diversification for reduced capital risk.

Earn a better return

Australian bonds have proven to deliver better returns than cash or international shares over the last 20 years. If you’re looking for strong returns, bonds are a great way to achieve your aims.

Corporate Bonds generally pay a higher income return than cash and term deposits.
