info_outlineToday’s episode is the start of a new podcast series discussing where your pension money is going starting with the recent proposals by Jeremy Hunt at the Mansion House speech.
Should pension savers and private investors be concerned about this proposal to direct billions of pension money towards UK small caps and unlisted companies? What will it mean for pension savers and private investors?
Will these proposed billions lead to a bubble in small caps and unlisted companies with the inevitable crash, or will it lead to a whole host of new yet-to-be-formed companies that pension savers, private investors and UK PLC will benefit from?
