The company is one of the few to have benefited from the Bank of England’s hike in interest rates, but what’s in store for the company in the future?Lastly, Jemma Slingo joins the conversation to discuss this week’s cover feature on the ‘attention economy’. What effect has instant information had on our attention? And how can investors get a slice of the digital advertising action without investing directly in the biggest, expensive players?
