Tyndall produces adviser information kit


In a move aimed at better informing advisers about the benefits of fixed income products, specialist manager Tyndall Asset Management has developed an information kit.
Announcing the release of the kit this week, Tyndall AM said it was intended to help advisers explain to their clients how fixed income works, and the risks and rewards of including fixed income in their portfolio.
It said the kit would include eight fact sheets on different aspects of fixed income, such as credit markets, covered bonds, and the Australian fixed income market as a whole.
It also includes a consumer information booklet, "Bonding with Income - the truth about fixed income", covering areas such as common terminology, what is meant by yields and yield curves, and its role in a diversified portfolio. The booklet will only be available to clients through their adviser.
Commenting on the release of the kit, Tyndall AM head of fixed income Roger Bridges said that with increasing interest in fixed income investments, the company had decided to develop the kit to assist advisers in answering questions from their clients about fixed income.
