Fahad al-Saif, director of investment banking at HSBC Saudi Arabia has said that investors in the kingdom are being drawn towards bonds due to volatile equity markets and low interest rates on deposits, Reuters has reported. "Investors have only two asset classes - equities and deposits in banks. Equities are now volatile and interest rates are low, so they are increasingly turning to bonds, bringing debt allocation into their portfolios," he said.
