It is important to note that events in Iran and the Middle East are developing rapidly, and our views are subject to change as events evolve.

Fidelity’s Chief Sustainability Officer Jenn-Hui Tan outlines why progress from here will depend on the extent to which providers navigate regulatory complexity, distributors gain comfort with the new labels and market dynamics affect sentiment towards sustainable funds.
Short dated high quality corporate bonds are once again emerging as an attractive opportunity for cautious income focused investors. The 1-to-5-year investment grade segment delivers a clear yield premium over cash and government bonds, offers low duration risk and retains a much stronger credit profile than high yield. Here, we highlight how this profile has driven one of the strongest long-term risk adjusted returns across major fixed income markets and why it remains a compelling choice for investors seeking income without taking on unnecessary risk.
