The division will also provide education and advisor-specific technology to support the implementation and ongoing management of fixed income investments in advice practices. It will also educate advisors about the role bonds and term deposits can play in client portfolios.

FIIG head of intermediary sales Grant McCorquodale said FIIG Adviser Services will encourage advisers to reconsider how they work fixed income products in client portfolios.

McCorquodale added: "We see overseas investors having larger allocations to fixed income, up to 25 per cent for pre-retirees, and the advisers we talk to understand the importance of these levels of allocations.

"We provide advisers the means to administer and report on client investments in a way that delivers genuine practice efficiency and time savings but, crucially, we offer this within the frame of direct ownership of true defensive assets."
