"In this low-yield environment, many investors have taken on substantially more tail risk in their fixed income portfolios than they likely realize," said Isaac Braley. "Given liquidity concerns and other risk factors, especially in the context of future interest rate increases, investors need to clearly understand risk-return tradeoffs and, most importantly, whether they have the ability to quickly reduce risk if needed."
