Investing in anti-corruption: Jupiter's Guy de Blonay & futurist Mark Stevenson
Innovative companies, fighting corruption and removing friction in the global economy, fintechs, particularity digital payments businesses look like a great proposition for investors and society alike. That said, despite coming in with a 'clean deck' the collapse of companies like Wirecard recently proves that governance (that not-to-be-overlooked aspect of ESG) is as important for investors to keep an eye on as before the 2008 crisis. But, as Jupiter manager Guy de Blonay argues, low interest rates over the last 10 years has proved a great environment for innovation and challenging the status quo. In this second 'Futurist meets fund manager' episode, Mark Stevenson joins de Blonay and Citywire editor Will Robins, to understand how society benefits from this investment
