The rising cost of living, interest rates and inflation have rarely been out of the news recently. But what’s causing these price hikes? And when will it slow down?
To get a deeper understanding of the topic that’s been impacting everybody’s wallets over the last few months, Erica speaks to Charles Stanley Spokesperson & Chief Analyst, Rob Morgan.
During their conversation, Rob provides a background as to how we got to this state of financial repression, as well as the factors that play into inflation, how changes in buyer behaviour can impact the economy, and what role central banks play in managing inflation.
Erica also asks Rob about how investors can weather the storm and protect themselves against rising inflation.
