About this episode

In this episode of The ifa Show, host Keith Ford is joined by Nicole Gardner, founder and financial adviser at Stellar Wealth, to explore how clients react to times of turmoil and whether global events should change investment plans or even their ethical considerations.

As tensions in the Middle East continue to simmer in a very public manner, Gardner explains that clients are now left considering how they feel about the potential of profiting from conflict against their desire for higher investment returns.

Listen as they discuss:

  • Why the markets aren’t really reacting to the Israel–Iran conflict.
  • How a reliance on passive investing can limit advisers’ flexibility during market upheaval.
  • The possible opportunities in volatility.
