David is one of the best known and most recognisable financial commentators in the City with more than 40 years of experience behind him. His weekly emails are a must-read among investors, journalists and traders. 

In conversation with Christian, he reflects on where this crisis ranks among all the shocks and twists he’s seen in his career; lambasts the European Central Bank for its timid response; praises the Bank of England and new governor Andrew Bailey; bemoans the state of the coronavirus business interruption loan scheme; and places the current market slump in a historical context. 

Also in this episode, Christian looks at the fate of the UK pub industry; the tech challenge facing banks; and the $27bn LSE-Refinitiv deal which is still on the cards, despite the pandemic.
