Lloyd Blankfein is worried that investors think low interest rates will last forever.
"One
of the big risks that's looming is complacency. People are once again
complacent about the low level of interest rates," the Goldman Sachs CEO
said at the New York Times DealBook conference Wednesday.
As a result, there could be losses for investors with portfolios heavy with low interest loans, Blankfein predicted.
"At
some point growth will come back. I think its going to come back sooner
than people think. Now what's going to happen when growth comes back,
interest rates rise?" Blankfein said. "That will have an effect on
portfolios and people will have losses."
