Richard Buxton interview: Lloyds Bank's results and dividend optimism

The Merian Global Investors' fund manager talks to interactive investor's head of markets Richard Hunter about a recent article in which he argued in favour of a more equitable balance between debt and equity, and how lower dividend payments could yield a more stable system over time. As well as suggesting that coronavirus offers the UK a chance to develop a more benign form of capitalism, Buxton gives his view on UK banks' Q1 results and that economic barometer, Lloyds Bank.
