Financial services firm Axa has announced a new corporate bond investment fund which provides returns from sterling-dominated economies in the UK and abroad.
The Axa Sterling Corporate Bond has been recommended to those seeking a more cautious investment for their money during the recession, although it offers higher volatility and greater income.
Capital is preserved, risk management is a high priority for the fund directors and the investments are flexible, meaning that the portfolio can be adapted to meet the conditions of the stock market .
David Thompson, managing director of sales and marketing at Axa Winterthur Wealth Management, said: "The Axa Sterling Corporate Bond aims to capitalise on some unprecedented high yields, while minimising the risk through careful selection of robust, quality, investment-grade companies."
A recent survey by ifs ProShare, a membership organisation for those involved in employee investment schemes, showed that workers are still keen to put their money into stocks and shares .
