Do you know what your money is invested in? And do you feel confident you're making the right choices?
Some of us are investing in the 'default' plan, whether that's through a Stocks and Shares ISA or a workplace pension. Others are dabbling in crypto or gold. And many of us aren't even investing at all, preferring the safety of keeping cash tucked away in a savings account.
Join our host, Philippa Lamb, and our expert panel as they discuss investing fundamentals:
- Content Creator 'That Money Guy', Gabriel Nussbaum;
- Founder and CEO of rainchq, Davinia Tomlinson; and
- Senior Investment Content Manager at PensionBee, Matt Batsman.
