    How can retail investors trust private equity valuations?

    Over the long term, some private equity investment trusts have delivered a strong performance, but in the short term it's been more challenging owing to interest rate rises. This has led to some uncertainty over the underlying valuations of assets held in private equity trusts. To address the concerns that some investors have, Kyle speaks to Steven Tredget of Oakley Capital Investments, a private equity investment trust. The performance figures cited were the latest available at the time the interview took place last month. On The Money is an interactive investor (ii) podcast.

    Is this a smarter way to invest in stock markets?

    This week, Kyle talks to Rob Arnott, founder of Research Affiliates, about a new way of owning the market passively by backing underdog stocks that have been kicked out of big indices, such as the S&P 500.
