Yearly investment outlook

As we enter 2025, we look to maintain perspective and to balance the risks across respective asset classes.
Balancing Act – Investment Outlook 2024
As we enter 2024, we have a broadly balanced asset allocation stance, namely a neutral weighting in equities and a much-increased weighting in bonds. This follows a steady reduction in equity exposure throughout the last quarter of 2023.
Pivotal year ahead: Investment Outlook 2023
As we look forward to 2023, we maintain a preference for equities over other asset classes. The prevailing market consensus is that inflation has now peaked, and that rates will therefore peak by the middle of 2023.
