Inflation-Linked Bonds: Protect Your Portfolio from Rising Prices

In this video I explain exactly how UK index-linked gilts (Iinkers) work, clear up the four most common misunderstandings I see in our community, and walk you through the practical reality of buying and holding one: what appears on your contract note, what the coupon payments look like in your account, and what you receive at maturity. By the end you will be in a much better position to decide whether linkers belong in your portfolio.
