Efforts to mitigate the economic impact of Covid-19 have left us with debt mountains higher than after the second world war. As governments begin to roll out big post-pandemic fiscal programmes and increase the debt still further the role of central banks becomes increasingly vital to the stability of government finances. What does that mean for the functioning of global markets and the construction of portfolios?

In this month's Rich Pickings Richard Edgar talks to Fidelity International's Head of Global Macro and Strategic Asset Allocation Salman Ahmed together with portfolio managers Charlotte Harington and Tim Foster. With additional contributions from Global Chief Investment Officer Andrew McCaffery. You can listen to the full interview with Andrew here.
