That's all right here in episode 42 of the Marketing Protection and Finance Podcast. Who is Annabel Brodie-Smith? Annabel is Communications Director at the Association of Investment Companies. She focusses on communicating the uses, features and benefits of Investment Companies to the media, opinion formers, financial advisers, wealth managers and private investors.
