Uncertainty around Brexit has left many investors wondering how they should position their investments.

Looking at post Brexit investment opportunities, Damien Fernandez believes that the place to be is in high dividend growers. Looking at the bond market for the past few years has been on a downward move because of some structural issues, demographic issues – as people get older, activity levels are lower, and that weighs on economic growth. There is also high levels of debt. These are the reasons why bond deals have been moving lower. More recently, we’ve had the Brexit scare and it accelerated the move down in bond yields. Globally, we have 40% of developed market bonds that are yielding below zero. The real reason yields have gone down so much with Brexit, partially is because people have been going in and putting their money into bonds. 

There should be a move to other income alternatives. Equities and particularly dividend growth equities are one of the true places left that people should focus on. If you are looking at quality companies which have cash flows in stable businesses that are growing as well, where dividends are increasing, those are great alternatives.
