Bond markets flag troubles ahead (with special guest Kallum Pickering)

SPECIAL GUEST ALERT. We’re delighted to be joined on today’s episode by Peel Hunt’s Chief Economist Kallum Pickering. Kallum brings with himself well over a decade of experience as an economist in London and is a regular commentator in the financial markets space, having made many appearances down the years on the likes of Bloomberg and CNBC. He also has regular columns in the Telegraph, the Spectator and the Evening Standard. 

This week, we chat about global bond markets, fiscal policy and the current predicament that governments find themselves in. Debt levels are rising, borrowing costs are increasing and ageing populations are putting a stain on the public coffers. But what does this mean for the global economy, and how can authorities address the issue? We also give our thoughts on what to expect at November’s UK Autumn Budget.
