Looking forward to this panel session on Friday!
UK assets have been lowly valued since Brexit and largely still are, even after a better year. Plenty of British investors are still stepping over the opportunity on their own doorstep. Great British Bargains puts the @AICPRESS 's @NickBritton_ with three trust managers buying different bits of it: Jean Roche of @Schroders on mid caps, Richard Shepherd-Cross of Custodian Property Income REIT on property, and Muhammad Anwer of Amber Infrastructure. 13:50, The Queen Charlotte. Fri 18 Sept. Get your ticket at investorsummit.co.uk/tickets
