Cutting through the noise
The markets “are like a jigsaw puzzle,” Philip often explains. “We put together the pieces and use evidence-based decision making to carve away the noise, but it’s always changing. You can wake up the next day and suddenly find five pieces missing. That’s why we constantly re-evaluate our recommendations with the most recent data.”

Philip understands that for economic and market insights to be meaningful for clients, they must be timely, straightforward, and relevant. In that spirit, as an award-winning podcaster, Philip hosts IG’s The Living Market Podcast. For five minutes each week, he explains the news dominating the investment landscape and what these trends mean in people’s lives.
