\"London<\/a><\/p>\n

With London Business School experts saying don\u2019t expect returns of more than 3 or 4 per cent a year from equities over the next decade, and negative returns from bonds, savers should keep about half their capital in cash or near-cash securities, says Money Management adviser Russell Taylor. <\/p>\n

Big Bank Warning<\/h3>\n

He warns: \u201cBanks are bigger, less profitable and more dangerous than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Quantitative easing, he says, has inflated asset prices but done nothing for economic growth.<\/p>\n

The ongoing revolution in technology has reduced the power of labour relative to capital, \u201cso ensuring that the return on capital is at its highest level ever.\u201d But growing dividends make the rich richer without adding to demand for goods and services as their needs are already satisfied.<\/p>\n
