The Investment Podcast: Inflation - is it real?

25 min listen 11 Aug 21

From the ‘Great Moderation’ of the 1980’s, to the current day, the inflation environment has been relatively benign, with the policies of recent years mostly concerned with preventing deflation. However, as economies begin to rebound from the Covid crisis, inflation has ticked up. Is the current rise in inflation transitory, or could we see Central banks move to tighten policy? David Parsons and David Lloyd walk through the history of what has led us to this point and what to look out for.

 

Host: David Parsons, Head of the Public Debt Investment Specialist team
Speaker: David Lloyd, Deputy CIO Public Fixed Income, Head of Institutional Fund Management
