Inflation blog series - Allocations for inflation
In this series of blogs, we look at the questions we think we can answer about inflation and the impact they are having on how we manage fixed income, equities and currencies in the context of overall asset allocation.
Part 1: The problem with inflation
Lacking a crystal ball to guide our inflation views, we must embrace the uncertainty and make pragmatic decisions to deal with all scenarios.
Part 2: The right questions
French anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss once said that "the wise man doesn't give the right answers, he poses the right questions".
Part 3: When bond theories collide
In the third part of our series exploring the asset-allocation response to inflation, we look at the implications for fixed income.
Part 4: The FX of inflation
In the fourth part of our series exploring the asset-allocation response to inflation, we look at the role of currencies.
Part 5: A tale of three asset classes
John Southall explains the differences between hedging inflation, keeping pace with inflation, and having the chance of a great return should inflation spike.
Part 6: Equities
While inflation’s effects on equities in general can seem relatively straightforward, it can be more difficult to differentiate between the winners and losers from these effects.

Our latest views and insights
Find out the most recent views and insights from our Multi-Index team on what we’re seeing in global financial markets and how we believe this will impact investments.
When can the UK safely ease the lockdown?
Our analysis suggests that by prioritising people with comorbidities, the UK could be six weeks away from vaccinating the 55% of the population that is most vulnerable to COVID-19, weakening the link between cases and hospitalisations.
Decarbonisation: seeking stratospheric performance
Decarbonisation was one of the biggest themes of 2019 and 2020. Rightly so, we would argue. With the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) taking place in November, this could be another important year for decarbonisation.
Q3 Outlook: Summertime for investors?
We continue to favour staying long equities, and are prepared to increase our exposure in a dip, as investors bask in the sunshine of a global economy in mid-cycle.
