Kwasi Plays His Hand: Who Wins?

View descriptionShare

We know we've said this before, but really, truly it is a big week for Britain. The Bank of England decision on Thursday and the chancellor's fiscal statement on Friday---a particularly high stakes moment. It offers a taste of the Truss-Kwarteng economic vision. But the question looming--what promises in the mini-budget will come to fruition? And will the messages from the BoE and the government this week feel joined up?

In this week's In the City, Legal & General CEO Nigel Wilson joins David Merritt and Bloomberg finance editor Katherine Griffiths to discuss what business leaders need to hear -- and whether any of it matters if they can't deliver. Plus, Bloomberg Opinion's Marcus Ashworth joins David and Francine Lacqua to discuss some headline-grabbing policies that might be coming (think scrapping bonus caps)--and whether Kwarteng's all systems go approach is winning anyone over.
