Investment Update
A sense of stability… Q4 2025 arrives with markets showing resilience and investors breathing a little easier.
After a period of inflation anxiety and economic uncertainty, recent months have brought positive surprises. Global growth, falling interest rates, and lower commodity costs have all contributed to a more optimistic outlook.
As Co-Chief Investment Officer Shanti Kelemen notes, it’s easy to dwell on risks and negatives, but the data tells a story of steady progress. The 7IM team remains vigilant, balancing risk with opportunity at every step of the investment process.
Also, in this update we:
- Reflect on another sunny quarter for markets (and weddings!)
- Welcome you to the age of Vibeflation, where the vibes feel worse than the data suggests
- Put all-time highs in perspective, looking at the FTSE 100’s new records in the right context.
For more details on the current environment and portfolio changes, the Investment Management and Risk teams are ready to help.
