Inflation or deflation? Who cares!

With inflation double the Bank of England's target rate at 4%, many investors are looking for ways to hedge themselves against the risk of even higher inflation. Bengt Saelensminde reveals a bond with an incredible ability: it hedges itself against both inflation and deflation.

Today I want to tell you about a great new opportunity - a bond with a coupon that could pay off handsomely whether we're heading towards inflation, deflation, or even a bit of both!

Unlike most bonds, the bond I'm going to recommend to you today can be bought through your regular stockbroker. Its traded on the London Stock Exchange's Order Book for Retail Bonds (ORB) the new bond market for private investors - better still you can tuck it away in your Isa for tax free gains. And if inflation takes off - that tax break could be a massive boon.
