Germany is caught in the interest rate trap. For investors, finding lucrative returns on their savings is proving increasingly challenging. Yields on German government bonds are at historic lows—in real terms, investors are already losing money. What most people don’t yet realize is that persistently low interest rates pose a massive threat to many forms of retirement planning.
Will life insurance policies actually honor their guarantees? Are money market accounts and time deposits truly safe in the long run? Can defensive balanced funds and asset management funds still be recommended?
In "The Interest Rate Trap: The New Threat to Conservative Investors—Identifying and Avoiding Risks to Your Portfolio" Eckhard Sauren, a pioneer in qualitative fund analysis, and his research team analyze the effects of the interest rate trap and highlight which investment types are particularly affected. In addition, Sauren features interviews with Bert Flossbach, Peter E. Huber, and Klaus Kaldemorgen—three of Germany’s most renowned fund managers.
The book was published by FinanzBuch-Verlag (ISBN 978-3-89879-898-3) and was featured on the "Bestseller List" from *manager magazin* recorded.

Reading his work forces you to take action: Continuing to do nothing and simply waiting must then seem criminally reckless to anyone."
