Talking Money: Arcadia collapse & expensive EVs

Welcome to episode 2 of Talking Money, with Martin Bamford and Hannah Godfrey.

In each episode of Talking Money, we take a topical look at the big money stories of the week, putting our personal spin on the news.

This week, we look at the collapse of Arcadia and Debenhams; what it means for the High Street, employees and pension funds.

We also chat about electric vehicles, with new research suggesting that a third of people believe they will never be able to afford to buy a new or used electric car.

Finally, we end on an optimistic note, talking about the regulatory approval of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, which will start to be administered as early as next week. But what does it mean for the markets and the economy?
