Preservation of Capital |
0.01 sec. |
|
Preservation of Capital A conservative investment strategy that attempts merely to avoid the loss of value. Retirees often prefer this strategy for their savings because the rate of return is designed only to keep up with inflation, ensuring that the value of their savings does not decrease over time. This often works in the short-term for pensioners, but using capital preservation as a long-term strategy often adds exposure to inflation risk rather than reduces it. Capital preservation strategists usually invest in fixed-income securities and other low-risk investments. How to thank TFD for its existence?
