The British Pound Collapses

UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Kwasi Kwarteng has just launched the biggest package of tax cuts in half a century. This much criticised mini budget has caused the pound to depreciate by more than 3% against the greenback. We ask Kingsley Jones, Chief Investment Officer at Jevons Global about the UK economy and how much lower can the currency go.
