Diana Orlic, Senior Investment Advisor at Richardson Wealth, explains that her first step with younger clients is to educate them about the bond market and the role of ETFs for diversification – always focusing on their financial goals and time horizon.

“If they’re just starting out, they don’t need to maybe source out an individual bond right away. I think there are a lot of products now that make it easy to get exposure and be a little more diversified, like ETFs.”
