The document discusses how higher rates, inflation, and oil prices can reduce disposable income and require adjustments to spending and investments. It advocates staying invested during tough economic times by cutting unnecessary expenses. It provides the example of Cato the Elder, who rejected extravagance. The document then outlines seven levels of financial freedom, with the seventh being abundant wealth from a balanced portfolio providing a safe withdrawal rate. It encourages developing financial discipline to build capital and take advantage of investment opportunities.
Warren Buffett recently discussed his win of a decade long wager in the 2017 Annual Report of Berkshire Hathaway. His winning claim was that an investment in a US equity index would outperform a selected group of hedge funds over the period. Although, over time, equity is a strong return generating asset class, the majority of investors are not in the privileged position where they not only have the luxury of time and emotional fortitude, but also sufficient excess capital to be able to fully invest in such a risky asset class to reap the reward that comes with time. The role of hedge funds in the portfolio construction of these investors is explored.
There are still opportunities despite stretched valuations. Looking at the macro-backdrop and overlaying it with the stock market, we find that the current episode of moderation is not out of synch with history: we have seen this before. It is not out of the ordinary to see a growth moderation of the current magnitude.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

1. A whirlwind of higher rates, rising inflation and global oil prices leads to a decline in disposable
income, which is the net income an investor is left with to invest and spend after all necessary
expenditures. Put simply, investors will have to dig deeper into their pockets to meet their
expenditures, leaving behind a smaller amount of free cash. Therefore, spending, purchases and
investments need to be re-adjusted accordingly.
Staying invested is the best way to navigate such tough economic times. However, to stay invested,
unnecessary expenditures need to be cut off. This means, spend only on what is necessary, or better
put, ‘Avoid the Superfluous’.
It is said that Cato the Elder, a renowned senator and roman soldier, never wore a garment that cost
more than a few dollars. He drank the same wine as his slaves with whom he regularly worked
alongside in the fields. He rejected the extensive trappings of high society. “Nothing is cheap,” he said,
“if it is superfluous”.
If you don’t need it, don’t buy it and if you don’t care about it, don’t worry about what everyone else
thinks.
Discipline to Financial Freedom
Opportunities shall continue to emanate in the financial markets for all investors with ready capital to
invest.
A good example of this today is the fixed income markets. Higher interest rates provide opportunities
for investors to lock-in higher rates in fixed income securities such as the recently issued
infrastructure bond (IFB). Investors who seek to invest in the current fixed income market are bound
to lock in significantly high rates for their investments, which have relatively shorter durations.
Investments in non-infrastructure treasury bonds require a minimum investment of KES 50,000.
The minimum investment amount for infrastructure bonds is KES 100,000. With sufficient capital,
one can take advantage of market opportunities such as the current IFB1/2023/7. A leaflet on this
particular issue is attached below:
JUNE 2023
MONTHLY REPORT
AVOID THE SUPERFLUOUS
2.
3. Building the necessary capital to invest requires discipline. To achieve consistency in discipline, it is
important to understand one’s stage in life.
Best selling author of the book 'Financial Freedom' and a leading voice in the financial independence,
retire early (FIRE) movement, Grant Sabatier, has broken down the 7 levels of financial freedom, as
shown below:
1.Clarity
It is important to take stock of your financial situation. How much do you have? How much do you
owe? What are your goals? Most investors want to be rich. Without a clear goal, financial freedom
remains a far-fetched dream.
2. Self-Sufficiency
Clarity makes it easier to achieve self-sufficiency, where one is able to stand on their own two feet. A
normal source of regular income is expected at this stage. It is also understandable if one is still taking
on loans to make ends meet and therefore may not have enough to commit to investments. However,
loans should not be overwhelmingly high compared to regular income.
3. Breathing Room
After all the necessary expenses have been taken care of, determine the extra income that is left i.e.
disposable income. This is the income that is used to build up investor capital. Opportunities that can
be harnessed at this stage may include money market funds which allow for regular investing and
encourage investors to develop an investing culture.
4. Stability
Discipline and consistency help one achieve stability in their financial journey. At this point, one is
able to maintain a stable investment account, pay up their debts and therefore free up more cash for
investments and take up insurance policies.
It is advised by financial experts that when analyzing how much one needs to have saved, it is
important to think about the overall financial picture in an uncertain financial moment, rather than
just factoring in regular, everyday expenses.
5. Flexibility
Grant reckons that investors at this stage have at least 2-years’ worth of living expenses saved. One
has the ability to think of their money in terms of what it can buy them. Additionally, more risk can
be included in the investor’s portfolio such as stocks or shares.
6. Financial Independence
Investors at this stage can depend fully on income from their investments. An investor can have
income being generated from repayments from investments. These could be bond coupons, stock
dividends or rental income.
To get to this point, one is likely to have invested a high percentage of their income. It is also
important to point out that this is consistent, disciplined investing. However more monitoring of an
investor’s portfolio is needed to secure the assurance of their investments.
4. 7. Abundant Wealth
This can be likened to the self-actualization stage. It is the epitome of wealth creation. Financial
independence is achieved and investors can safely withdraw approximately 4%, adjusted for inflation,
from a balanced portfolio of stocks and bonds each year, and be relatively certain that the money will
continue to grow and not run out.
