In these troubling economic times, it is wise to invest in solid, investment grade bonds which have a reasonable rate of return. Solid Israeli corporate bonds provide a better rate of return than State of Israel government bonds, with some more risk. Fixed-yield, adjustable or inflation protected corporate bonds may prove to be a good strategy for capital perseveration-oriented clients.
