In this latest video update, Anthony Gillham, Co-Investment Director of Multi-Asset at Old Mutual Global Investors, discusses:

• How multi-asset portfolios have benefitted from gains in European equities due to an overweight position in the asset class

• Inflation in the UK, which may rise further if the new government pursues a 'hard' Brexit and dials down on austerity measures

• How to help mitigate this risk, portfolios are underweight UK government debt and are biased towards financials, both stocks and bonds

Not even a year on since Brexit and, once again, UK voters are being asked to go to the polls. Whatever the outcome of the general election, will equity markets carry on regardless?

Join Richard Buxton for his regular fund update and his take on what, he believes, the result means for investors and savers alike.
