Financial experts, including Francisco Quintana of ING, Roberto Scholtes of Singular Bank, and Antonio Castelo of iBroker, are advising investors to adjust their portfolios in response to rising interest rates. They recommend reducing exposure to companies with high debt and those sensitive to financing costs, and instead favoring sectors such as banking, insurance, and energy.

A balanced portfolio could include 45-50% equities, 35-40% fixed income, 7-10% gold and defensive commodities, and the rest in liquidity. Experts also suggest being cautious with highly leveraged real estate and utility companies, while opportunities exist in telecommunications, electric generation, and AI-related infrastructure.
