About FINA
Fixed Income News Australia (FINA) is Australia’s only dedicated free source of news, views and information for personal investors in fixed income. Our mission is to provide greater understanding about the important role of fixed income in a diverse, sustainable investment portfolio.
Our Audience
Our goal is to be the leading source of news, views and information on fixed income investing for non-professional investors. FINA’s target audience includes:
- High Net Worth individuals
- Self-funded retirees
- SMSF managers/trustees
- Private wealth managers (accountants and financial planners)
- FI industry professionals
The level of sophistication and understanding within this audience varies greatly. However, it is advisable to adopt simple, clear and concise language that assumes the reader has only limited understanding of fixed income and their investment options.
