In the Company of Mavericks: Politics & Markets with Roger Lee

For this episode, Progressive's Jeremy McKeown chats with Roger Lee, Head of Equity Strategy at Cavendish and a City veteran with almost 30 years in the equity market. Roger started his broking career with Cazenove, then worked at HSBC James Capel, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, and, most recently, as Head of UK Equity Strategy at Investec.   Roger is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants, a Physics graduate and a frustrated Politician.For this discussion, Jeremy wanted to talk to Roger about politics and how it has come to dominate markets over recent years. He puts today’s seemingly chaotic geopolitics and rather depressing UK domestic politics into a useful historical context. It was an absorbing and illuminating chat with some suggestions on how markets might play out over the coming months.
