'Talent is everywhere; opportunity is not'
The latest episode of the FT Adviser Editor's Podcast focuses on a few words: Talent is everywhere, opportunities are not. This is wording taken from the mission statement of youth empowerment charity Urban Synergy. Founded in 2007, the charity has helped more than 20,000 young people aged between 9 and 24 years to reach their full potential. Chief executive and founder Leila Thomas talks to Simoney Kyriakou about the opportunities that financial services companies have to help create diversity in the City.

Should investors care about elections?
Much of the world's population will be going to the polls for elections in the coming years. But should advisers or their clients react to the politics, either by viewing it as a chance for profit or a threat requiring evasive action.
Joining FT Adviser investment editor David Thorpe to discuss the topic are Sunil Krishnan, head of multi-asset funds at Aviva Investors; Hugh Gimber, market strategist at JP Morgan; and Hiroki Hashimoto, senior multi-asset fund manager at Royal London Asset Management.

From Nasa to Income Protection: what lessons can we learn from AI advances
In this episode of the Editor's Podcast, Simoney Kyriakou, editor of FT Adviser, talks about artificial intelligence - two words one can hardly escape hearing or reading, it seems. But the speed at which this so-called Fifth Industrial Revolution is taking place makes it impossible to ignore. She is joined by a tech enthusiast, Dr Christian Westermann to consider how financial services can use AI better. He worked on NASA and the ESA space missions in the 1990s, building satellite-based instruments, working on signal detection, and trying to understand the origin of our solar system with the use of physics, data & modelling. Westermann is now Group head of AI and data transformation at Zurich.

Customer Reviews
Audio Quality is terrible
Content of the podcast is good. Hard listen however as the audio quality is just terrible - echoes, feedback, different audio quality between individuals talking, people breathing down their own mics etc etc
makes it a hard listen.
