The Opportunities for Investors amid Higher-for-Longer Interest Rates

The Federal Reserve signaled this week that interest rates could be higher for longer, which may pose a challenge for the broader equity market if tighter policy leads to less consumption, says Anshul Sehgal, global co-head of Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities.
