Protecting your portfolio from rate rises: RBA discussion with Finni Mortgages

Paul Glossop, chief executive of finni.com.au, joins host Phil Tarrant to explain the economics behind the RBA’s series of rate rises and why stifling consumer spending will benefit the Australian economy and, therefore, its residents, even if it comes with some interim financial pain.

Paul explains that there are steps you can take to ensure your wider financial portfolio is still performing for you. The losers, he warns, will only be those who are lazy with their money.
