Tom welcomes back Tim Price from Price Value Partners, to discuss the happenings on the other side of the pond. Price shares concerns over Europe's chaos, comparing it unfavorably to the US under Trump, who he sees as reducing 'woke culture' and neo-Marxist economic policies. He criticizes the media for losing credibility due to untruths and emphasizes the importance of understanding debt economics. Price reflects on his experiences during the exchange rate mechanism crisis and shares skepticism towards state planning, believing it has historically failed. Tim also covers the potential swing from left to right in politics and corruption issues, with Trump's election seen as a possible catalyst for change. Additionally, gold or non-fiat money is suggested as an alternative to the corrupted monetary system. Price calls for individual empowerment and market efficiencies, criticizes central banks, and advocates for real assets and value investing. He discusses potential implications of Bitcoin reaching new heights and Tether's role in it. Throughout the interview, Tim Price encourages listeners to consider traditional investments like gold and silver, often overlooked despite their attractive valuations compared to the stock market.

Portfolios looking to make a real-world impact are increasingly considering real assets as part of their investment strategies.With a trillion-dollar investment gap in our global infrastructure, this seems like a smart move. Real asset investing is not only driving progress worldwide, it's also a smart long-term investment to secure our planet's future.But some may ask… what is the real extent of impact that real assets can generate? In this episode, we're going to find out. My guest is Anish Majmudar, the Head of Real Assets at M&G plc whose team focuses on investments in infrastructure, agriculture, and nature-based solutions. He studied economics at University College London and entered the world of finance and asset management in 2012 thanks to the graduate program at M&G.Anish is here to share his remarkable insights on overseeing a vast portfolio that amounts to nearly $400 billion in assets across public and private markets.His curiosity for alternative assets ultimately led to a crucial role in growing Prudential Assurance Company's real assets portfolio division. In this episode, Anish and I lay out all the opportunities and challenges within the real asset impact investing space, an area that M&G is opening up for a broader range of investors, having previously been the preserve of large institutional pools of capital. These investments aim to bridge the massive infrastructure spending gap with sustainable solutions, focusing on energy transition, responsible consumption and production, and social and economic inclusion.We also discuss how this strategic approach is about much more than just capital investment for returns; it's about leveraging private capital and M&G's expertise to create clean energy, improve biodiversity, and open doors for underserved communities, thereby driving decarbonization and advancing global sustainability.Tune in to gain a better understanding of the deep impact that strategic investments in real assets can bring to our world.  —Show notes—About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

Tune in to our new podcast episode with special guests Senior Portfolio Manager Eric Menzer, and Senior Managing Director Alex Catterick as they chat about private markets, alternative investments, and the importance of including real assets in your portfolios.

Unlock the mysteries of real assets and their touted powers as inflation hedges with me, Edward Finley, on Not Another Investment Podcast. Together we explore the role of real assets in a portfolio.  We develop three categories of real assets, like commodities, production means, and infrastructure. By breaking down these complex relationships, we find that some "real" assets are more real than others.  You'll gain insight into not only the potential safeguards against inflation they offer but also the intricacies of investing in assets with their unique risks and liquidity challenges.Venture into the fascinating realm of commodity futures, there typical way investors gain exposure to commodities, and understand how the dance between futures prices and spot prices reveals much about the health of our economy. We'll clarify the concepts of backwardation and contango, where the roles of hedgers and speculators pull the strings behind the scenes, crafting the market's momentum and influencing the all-important roll yield. This nuanced understanding is key for those looking to tap into commodity spot returns without the hassle of physical inventories, and I promise, it's a topic that will sharpen your investment acumen.We'll put theory into practice by analyzing how commodity futures, particularly corn and oil, have performed through the lens of historical data. From the shockwaves sent through oil markets during COVID-19 to the long-term perspective on its efficacy as an inflation hedge from 1997 to 2023, this episode is a goldmine for enthusiasts and experts alike.
