Is this the fund to save the economy?

Long Term Asset Funds are a new initiative by the UK government. They've been created in an attempt to boost investment in areas such as infrastructure and climate-related goals and to turbo charge a flagging economy. Known as LTAFs, they are new to the UK but they're similar to schemes already in place in Europe and the rest of the world. But what are LTAFs?
James Lowe, Sales Director, joins the pod to discuss what LTAFs are, their pros and cons and what areas of the economy they are set to benefit.
