The Review's latest version is out now. Here’s a taster of what’s included in March’s magazine.
Becoming an expert witnessAppearing as an expert witness can be extremely well paid. Witnesses play a crucial part in legal proceedings, helping the court to understand complex issues by breaking down technical analysis into easily understood terms. However, should any issues arise with testimony, there is a risk it could set back a witness's career or even see them face lawsuits. Our feature explores how to best approach the role.
Entering emerging marketsEmerging markets (EMs) can be a tempting area for investors, but with so much change in these markets it can be difficult to know where to start. As many developing countries are home to young populations and growing middle classes, there can be plenty of reward for investors. However, they are also volatile and sensitive to change in other markets. We examine how EMs can be defined and effected.
Helicopter moneyThe emergence of a ‘bear’ market at the beginning of this year saw many commentators warn of another recession. If this were to happen the Government would be left with few options. Raised interest rates by the Federal Reserve sparked volatility in markets, and the Governor of the Bank of England has said he no longer believes the UK economy is strong enough to handle a rate rise of its own. Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn faced ridicule for his suggestion of People’s QE, yet it is now gathering support from unexpected circles. But what is People’s QE and how could it work?
The liabilities faced by NEDsThis issue's continuing professional development (CPD) feature explains the risks faced by executive and non-executive directors under the Senior Managers Regime.
