Q: Thank you for your very appreciated service.

My question is, how can an investment in financial services like SLF be bullish when bond rates go up. My understanding is that the value of the bonds held will decline in such a scenario so SLF's balance sheet will be negatively impacted as well. Enlighten me, how does SLF benefit from a rising interest rate environment?
