Read the Article: Rising Interest Rates Can Wreak Havoc on Fixed Income Portfolios

We have been spoiled by the long bull market in U.S. Treasuries, which has driven interest rates lower and facilitated outsized gains in equities and other risk assets.

Advisors must understand the inherent risks, and proactively evaluate alternatives for their fixed income portfolios to manage through successfully.
