    325: Fixed income in focus: halfway there
    Jun 14 2024
    As bond investors look towards the second half of 2024, we hear from Colin Reedie, Head of Active Strategies, regarding the myriad of forces driving financial markets currently. Colin also gives us a deep dive into credit spreads, all-in yields, the return of fiscal policy and makes some interesting parallels with the 1970s which, he believes, could shape the remainder of this year and next.

    This podcast is hosted by Frances Watson, Senior Content Manager, and was recorded before the FOMC meeting on 12 June 2024.
