Welcome to part two of this mini-series on currency investing, in this episode, we will be covering the very important topics of the size of the currency markets and the meaning of market liquidity. Who uses the currency markets and why? The fundamentals and how they impact currency valuation.
Currency investing basics, part one has been created to expand your Financial IQ covering the basic principles of investing in the foreign exchange markets.
Mike joined us to discuss the financial markets in detail and how alternative investments will become a more significant part of an individual’s long-term wealth portfolio. Market liquidity, volatility and central bank money printing.
One area we touched on was creating a solid business foundation, which to me, is so crucial for setting up a successful business, so I asked Hywel to come back on and expand on the areas required for a solid business foundation.
During this episode, we are delighted to have Paul Pattison on the show. Paul is a Husband, a farther, a landlord, an offshore oil and gas worker, a currency trader, and an entrepreneur with a successful business, Kilted Coffee, which he set up in 2018 with his wife.
The word risk, according to the English dictionary is a situation involving exposure to danger. How we quantify and assess risk is individual and has a different meaning for each of us, our appetite for risk is based mainly on the environment we grew up in, our parents and society at large
During this episode, I review a common theme running through both Mikes and Hywles episodes, FYR009 and FYR010. Although they come from two very different professions, Mike is a successful professional fund manager and Hywel is a successful business consultant, they both stressed the importance of planning.
Hywel started his career working in the oil and gas industry working on large multi-million-pound projects. Hywel spent many years, organising large teams, attending high-level board meetings, and ensuring these multi-million-pound projects were delivered on time and within budget.
Hywel left the oil and gas business in 2016, taking his immense knowledge, specialising in business strategy, business planning, and business analysis for small to medium-sized companies and start-ups.
