[Top-of-Mind] United Kingdom at a turning point

Speaker: Mansoor Mohi-uddin, Chief Macro Strategist, Bank of SingaporeThe UK appears to face a perfect storm. The energy shock from the US-Iran war has caused inflation to start rising again above 3%. Lacklustre growth has led to unemployment reaching five-year highs and Prime Minister Starmer’s position looks increasingly untenable just two years after winning a landslide general election. But the bearish outlook may only be short-lived. Fearful markets are likely to present fresh opportunities for longer-term investors in UK assets. In our Top-of-Mind podcast series, we unpack the various dimensions of these issues with leading business leaders and industry experts globally.
