About this episode

This week, Sonia Fernandes, our UK government relations and policy specialist, delves into the latest developments in UK politics – including the evolving relationship with the US, last week’s Spring Statement and the increasing uncertainty surrounding the future of the country’s leadership. Host Julien Lafargue, Chief Market Strategist, also gives an update on the conflict in the Middle East, from the potential impact of soaring oil prices to whether now could be a good entry point for investors.
