Interest rates have rocketed from just 0.1% to 5.25% over the past 18 months or so, which in turn has boosted the returns on savings rates.

Kyle is joined by Myron Jobson, senior personal finance analyst at interactive investor, to discuss why cash is not the risk-free option that many assume, and why those of you who stay invested over long time periods have a better chance of outstripping inflation.

Fund investors have shied away from Europe over the past couple of years. But now is a good time to re-examine exposure to the region – valuations are cheap, and its recent performance is catching the eye. A key driver has been European-listed luxury goods companies buoyed by the reopening of China and the resilience of wealthy consumers in the face of the cost-of-living crisis. To take a closer look at where the opportunities might be for your portfolio, Kyle is joined by Zehrid Osmani, manager of the Martin Currie Global Portfolio Trust, which has half of its assets in Europe.

In a special, final Funds Fan podcast, Kyle Caldwell and Sam Benstead discuss their top 10 tips for investing in funds. These include the active versus passive debate, the dangers of chasing the best-performing funds, and why understanding what you invest in is essential. The duo also discuss the lessons from the Neil Woodford collapse and why keeping costs down is key.

Later on in the podcast, Sam interviews Ewan Markson-Brown, manager of the Crux Asia ex-Japan fund. Ewan joined boutique Crux a year ago from Baillie Gifford, where he managed the top-performing Baillie Gifford Pacific fund and Pacific Horizon investment trust.

Later in the podcast, Sam interviews Gerrit Smit, fund manager of Stonehage Fleming Global Best Ideas Equity. It is a strategy where comparisons can be drawn to Fundsmith Equity – it invests in high-quality growth shares, has low turnover and is highly concentrated with fewer than 30 stocks. Sam and Gerrit discuss finding great companies, what a recession might mean for earnings of so-called quality companies, and why fund performance has been disappointing this year.

Ian tells me this time why tech stocks remain under pressure, why he remains confident in the value rally, and why Royal Mail (LSE:RMG) could still deliver.

The duo also name their top tips for deciding whether to hold or fold when a fund manager retires or jumps ship to join a rival firm.

Later on in the podcast, Kyle chats to Peter Ewins, fund manager of the recently renamed Global Smaller Companies Trust, which was formerly called the BMO Global Smaller Companies Trust.

Sam Benstead and Richard Hunter discuss the biggest news item in the world of fund investing, including the outlook for company earnings as firms report their second-quarter results, and the alarming rise of private company allocations in some investment trusts, including Scottish Mortgage.

They also discuss the bond sector, where a sharp sell-off has led to yields that finally offer investors a respectable income. One casualty of falling bond prices has been the 60/40 portfolio, but the outlook for a mixed-asset strategy is now brighter, Sam and Richard argue.

Later in the podcast, Sam chats to Chris Korpan, who runs the JP Morgan Natural Resources fund. Investing in mining and oil stocks, it has had a great 2022 so far. However, its outlook is uncertain given falling commodity prices as investors weigh up the impact of a recession on raw material demand.

Jonathan Davis is the author of the Investment Trusts Handbook, the editorially independent annual described as "the definitive guide to the sector". He joins Richard to take a closer look at why he considers trusts to be the "connoisseur’s choice", closed and open-ended investments and whether we are in a bear market.

Kyle Caldwell and Sam Benstead explain why professional investors are extremely bearish at the moment, and point out that the world’s largest fund manager is not ‘buying the dip’. The duo also name the income funds and trusts proving more popular with investors over the past couple of months, and run through a pledge made by respected investor Nick Train.

Later in the podcast, Sam chats to Barry Norris, who runs the Argonaut Absolute Return fund, which is a strategy that aims to make money in both rising and falling markets. Norris strongly believes that inflation will be high for the foreseeable future and that interest rates will keep rising.

In the final episode of series two, Gabby meets adventurer and author Alastair Humphreys. A National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, Alastair’s many outdoor escapades include cycling round the world, rowing the Atlantic and walking across India, but he has also won acclaim for his pioneering work on the concept of cheaper, simpler, closer-to-home microadventures.

He spends his time encouraging people to live more adventurously… but is his enterprising and often daring spirit reflected in his approach to money matters? It has certainly helped being married to an accountant, with whom he has two children.

Among stories from his many adventures, he tells Gabby how he has become a self-confessed money geek after years of ignoring his finances, how he funded a four-year trip around the world with just £7,000, and how he managed to get a pizza delivered in the middle of Alaska.

Dame Jayne-Anne Gadhia is widely regarded as one of Britain’s most successful bankers but, as she tells Gabby, didn’t always plan a career in finance.

Jayne-Anne helped Sir Richard Branson set up Virgin Money and as CEO steered the company through takeovers, a stock market float and eventual sale. She currently chairs the HMRC Board and, in 2020, launched Snoop, a money management app designed to help people become savvier with their spending and saving. Until last year, she was the Government’s Women in Finance Champion and was made a Dame in the 2019 Honours list. She met husband Ashok during freshers’ week at university and the couple have a daughter together.

Jayne-Anne reveals why her mum took charge of the family finances growing up, what life is like working for Sir Richard and why she’s always tried to make a positive difference when making big decisions at work.

Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham is Gabby’s guest on the pod this week. Andy became the Member of Parliament for Leigh in 2001 and served as both Culture Secretary and Health Secretary under Gordon Brown. Previously, he was Chief Secretary to the Treasury during one of the most turbulent times for the world’s financial markets.

In 2017 he left Westminster to successfully run for the new role of mayor of Greater Manchester, and was re-elected for a second term last year. Described unofficially by some as the ‘King of the North’, the married dad-of-three has been a vocal advocate for the north of England, holding the government to account over its levelling-up agenda in particular.

He tells Gabby why financial education should form part of a “curriculum for life” in schools, how Labour’s defeat in the 1992 General Election motivated him to pursue a career in politics, and why his children go to their mum for money advice rather than him.

Sarah Willingham originally planned a career in finance before making her fortune in food. Growing up in Stoke, the entrepreneur and former Dragon on the BBC's Dragons’ Den started her first paper round at the age of 11, then took her first steps in the restaurant trade aged just 13. From there she went on to work for Pizza Express and Planet Hollywood, and then turned Indian restaurant chain Bombay Bicycle Club into a multi-million-pound business. She also, along with her husband, built and then floated the nutraceutical company NutraHealth on the London Stock Exchange.

After starting a family, she then totally changed the way she worked, pulling back from managing her businesses day-to-day so she could achieve a better work-life balance and spend more time with her four children.

Sarah tells Gabby about who gave her confidence early in her career, how she vowed to take a break from media commitments just hours before being offered a role on Dragons’ Den, and why she and her husband let their children control the daily budget on their family gap year.

Series 2 kicks off with Gabby Logan speaking to author, political strategist and podcaster Alastair Campbell.

Having started out as a journalist, Alastair is best known for his six-year stint as former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s director of communications, previously serving as his press secretary while in Opposition. Despite returning briefly as an adviser to Gordon Brown and Ed Miliband, Alastair left frontline politics behind in 2003 to focus on his partner Fiona and their three children, alongside writing and raising awareness about mental health issues, drawing on his own personal experiences to help others.

Among insight from his political career, he tells Gabby about his lifelong fear of financial insecurity, how he made a fortune busking round Europe, and the reason Fiona takes the money reins at home – and why he thinks Gordon Brown’s wife does the same.
