Scott Kelly, UBS Wealth Management head of investment products, said that a drop in the deposit rates has forced clients to seek for more options to invest in bonds.

Kelly told the AFR: "High-net-worth investors are clearly shifting away from their historical bias towards domestic equities and term deposits; we are seeing that evolution gather pace in our business.

"In general, the biggest ‘underweight’ position compared to global averages has been in bonds and we continue to see interest in fixed income," he added.
