Tabula: Study reveals professional investors plan major asset allocation changes to counter inflation

September 27, 2021

Institutional investors and wealth managers are planning to invest in strategies which provide a hedge and protection against inflation rising.

This is according to new research from European fixed income ETF provider Tabula Investment Management Ltd (“Tabula”) with 100 wealth managers and institutional investors from the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland, who collectively manage almost US$100billion in assets under management.

Tabula found 95% of wealth managers and institutional investors interviewed are already investing in products that provide some hedge and protection against inflation. Nine out of ten (90%) expect to make changes to their asset allocation to increase inflation protection.

Seven out of ten wealth managers and institutional investors expect to increase their allocation to inflation-linked fixed income ETPs and eight out of ten to inflation-linked fixed income bonds (36% dramatically).
