Every fortnight Scott Francis joins Warren Boland during his Saturday morning program on ABC local radio - Brisbane.  During his last visit Scott discussed with Warren Cash as an Investment Option. 

In the discussion of investment options we often focus on shares and residential property - the higher risk, higher return investment options.  We often don't talk about cash and term deposit style investments, although they have a crucial role in any investment portfolio.

This article looks in more detail at the use of cash in investment portfolios and concludes that with increasing interest rates and financial institutions competing harder for your money, than for some time returns from this asset class will also be strong in at least the short term.

Scott also provided the ABC with a supporting article that they have placed on their website.  A copy of this material is also available on our website.  Please click the following link to be taken to this material - Cash as an Investment Option.
