Falling interest rates left income-focused investors such as retirees in a very difficult position. While investors turned to term deposits in 2025 to source defensive income, term deposit rates plunged, with the real return on some term deposits and savings accounts dropping below zero. Yet alternatives exist beyond cash, property and term deposits.
An important area of the investment market where relatively higher income is on offer is private credit. I’ve acted for several private credit clients, including Vado Private, Arrowpoint Capital, and Capspace to have their messages reported in the national media on a consistent basis.
Examples of my PR work for private credit providers include this story, with Vado Private giving a Warning for savers after banks slash savings interest by more than RBA cuts.
Arrowpoint Capital tells The Australian that the private debt market has never been more popular with super funds as it launches a new product.
Capspace and Vado Private, offered their views on the income potential of this emerging asset class here in The Australian, Golden age for Aussie seniors is soon to face rate cut pressure.
In the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age too, Capspace explains How Australians can take advantage of rising interest rates.
