TwentyFour Fixed Income Academy

29 October 2026 • Rathbones • London

13:00 - 19:45

We are delighted to invite you to TwentyFour’s Fixed Income Academy on Thursday 29 October 2026 at Rathbones London (30 Gresham St, EC2V 7QN).

Delivered in collaboration with Rathbones, the programme is designed exclusively for Rathbones apprentices, graduates and work placement students, helping you build practical knowledge and confidence in navigating the fixed income landscape. We will cover key concepts, market dynamics and the role fixed income plays in client portfolios.

What to expect

The afternoon will provide a practical introduction to the fundamentals of fixed income markets, the role of different debt instruments and the key macroeconomic forces that drive them. You will leave with a stronger understanding of how to interpret key market indicators and the relevance of fixed income to client portfolios.

After the Academy, we will head to the F1 Arcade for an informal evening of networking, drinks and nibbles, alongside some friendly competition as you try your hand at Formula 1 racing simulators. It will be a great opportunity to catch up with fellow colleagues at Rathbones and meet more of the TwentyFour team.
