Rising interest rates

Banks and insurers could be some of the most direct beneficiaries of rising rates. Higher rates can increase the amount of net interest banks can earn on loans and deposits, and the returns that insurers earn on the “float” - money received as premiums and not yet paid out as claims.

High interest rates shouldn’t be expected to be permanent. These companies may suffer when rates decline.
