Covid-19 – looking beyond the recession podcast

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought economic activity around the globe to its knees, with negative consequences for corporate profitability. Nonetheless, risk assets have rallied sharply. The panel will discuss whether markets are looking beyond the current recession to better times ahead, or leaning too heavily on central bank support. We will also outline recent tactical asset allocation changes, as well as what adjustments could be made over the coming months. Presented by our investment team panel: Sheldon MacDonald, Nathan Sweeney, Mayank Markanday, Jen Causton, Alex Burn; and Asim Qadri around these discussions. Hosted by Lorna Denny, Investment Specialist. Due to current situation this is a Lo-Fi recorded podcast due to our panel all working remotely. We will hopefully return to our studio quality broadcasts in the near future. This podcast is intended for investment professionals, and must not be shared with a non-professional audience.
