Investment Market Update - March 2021

Inflation fears today, taxation comes tomorrow. Welcome to our March Investment Market Update.

 

As we move towards a route out of the Pandemic Lockdown, Chancellor Rishi Sunak started to plot his route out of the economic downturn for the UK. Whilst short term inflation fears are mixing it up in the markets, we explain why we think interest rates will remain low, financial stimuli will remain in place for the time being, but the Chancellor has started to reveal his cards on how we repay that debt - and it is not austerity, its taxing on the larger corporates.
