On The Money

Football fever is sweeping the nation again after the men’s World Cup kicked off. There are parallels between the beautiful game and investing, particularly when it comes to team selection. In our latest On The Money podcast episode, host Kyle Caldwell and our head of markets, Richard Hunter, draw comparisons between investment types and positions on the pitch - goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and attackers. The duo also discuss the importance of having a ‘squad’ of investments that are ready to be brought on as substitutes when required.
