The basics of bonds | Gaby Rosenberg, Bl...

Equity Mates Media
About this episode

A common investing rule includes balancing your risk through diversification - and one of the ways to achieve this is through adding defensive assets to your portfolio! What are defensive assets, you may ask? Today we chat with the incredible Gaby Rosenberg, co founder of Blossom, to define defensive assets including the classic bond (no, unfortunately nothing to do with James) while exploring how she made one of the least accessible investments options available to people like you and me. Join us as we all learn about this new asset class.


Keep track of Sophie and Maddy between the episodes on Instagram for behind the scenes shots and tidbits, and come and be part of the conversation on Facebook with our You’re In Good Company Discussion Group. Got a question or a topic suggestion? Email us here
