Investment Podcast #39 - Economic Update and Impact

As geopolitical tensions, higher oil prices, and persistent inflation reshape the economic outlook, host Amie Baker is joined by Diana Mousina (North) and Estelle Liu (North) to explore what it means for investors and retirees. They unpack the market impact of the renewed Gulf conflict, the challenges facing central banks, and why inflation remains stubbornly high in Australia. The conversation then turns to retirement, examining the fear of running out of money, the tendency for retirees to underspend, and how advisers can help clients stay invested with confidence. With insights on portfolio construction, lifetime income solutions, and balancing growth with security, this episode offers practical guidance for navigating an increasingly uncertain retirement landscape.
