Given what 2023 left behind – lingering inflation, political strife, an IPO drought and the rise of artificial intelligence - what does 2024 hold for investors? This episode sets the scene.

The look-ahead conversation features two fund managers with decades of experience and a long-standing commitment to either end of the London market.

Nick Train is co-founder of the investment firm Lindsell Train and portfolio manager for UK equities including the FTSE 250 investment trust Finsbury Growth & Income whose holdings include large caps such as Diageo, Sage and Burberry. Before Lindsell Train, Nick was head of global equities at M&G and also spent 17 years at GT Management.

Gervais Williams is a small cap specialist, head of equities at Premier Miton and the President of the Quoted Companies Alliance. He is a frequent media commentator, a member of the AIM Advisory Panel at the London Stock Exchange and formerly spent 17 years at the fund manager Gartmore.
