Purchasing power safeguard
Inflation protection refers to features or strategies that preserve purchasing power as prices rise over time.
Financial instruments like Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) adjust their value with inflation.
Insurance policies and retirement plans may include inflation protection to ensure benefits keep pace with rising costs: The pension includes a 3% annual inflation protection adjustment.
Real assets like property and commodities are often considered natural inflation protection.
