Fixed-ology, Make Trust a Part of the Equation

How do you talk to your clients about fixed-income investing?

In the wake of the recent financial markets crisis, financial advisors are talking more about the role of fixed income in an investment portfolio, and clients are listening.

At Northern Trust, conservative risk management—and fixed-income investing, in particular—is one of our hallmarks. We are a premier wealth management firm focused on serving the needs of high-net-worth individuals.

Fixed-ology gives investment professionals a new language and approach for presenting and explaining some of the dynamics affecting fixed-income investing today.

What we know about fixed-income investing + What we've learned from our high-net-worth investors = Fixed-ology

There are risks involved in investing including possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee that the investment objectives of any fund or strategy will be met. Risk controls and models do not promise any level of performance or guarantee against loss of principal.

Fixed-income investing entails credit risks and interest-rate risks. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall, and a fund's share price can fall.

Before investing, you should carefully consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other information is in the prospectus, a copy of which may be obtained by calling 877-867-1259. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.
