Bonds have continued to generate low yields, and equity markets are near all-time highs. This creates a significant risk-gap in portfolios, especially for retirees and pre-retirees who are living longer and need income. Structured notes can fill this gap by increasing yield while preserving risk targets with a level of protection. Used for decades by private bankers with ultra-wealthy clients, structured notes have been largely inaccessible. A slow and inefficient market has also led to little adoption, especially in the United States. But now with technology, most investors can utilize the benefits of these investments.
Benefits of using Structured Notes:
- Generate higher yields
- Manage volatility
- Establish protection in portfolios
- Create a buffer against sequence of returns risk
In addition, these strategies can establish protection on equities without compromising growth.

In this session, Bruce and Jason will show how technology can be used to simplify Structured Notes to preserve assets and meet financial objectives for clients.
