Pick of the pod: your monthly roundup from LGIM Talks

By LGIM

In July, our investment podcast covered the outlook for emerging market assets, the economic challenges facing the UK, and what's behind the recent equity and bond market rallies. We also chatted to Bill Hughes, Global Head of Real Assets, about what triggered his move into real assets and what he loves about the built environment today.
