Welcome to the May 2017 edition of Wealth & Finance International magazine.

In recent news, Anthony Rayner, manager of Miton’s multi-asset fund range underlined recently that textbook portfolio construction theory suggests that long-dated bonds, particularly sovereign bonds from the large developed economies, are the archetypal haven and diversifier of equity risk.

In terms of deals, Deutsche Bank on 24th May signed an Accreditation Master Agreement (AMA) with the Green Climate Fund (GCF), enabling the bank to receive and use GCF capital and raise further funds from private sector investors to support action on climate change.

I hope you enjoy reading the news and many special features that this edition offers.
