Investing has become a “tough sell” for younger generations grappling with the cost of living crisis, bringing to an end the coronavirus-era boom in young people jumping into the markets, according to the new head of one of the UK largest investment providers. Michael Summersgill, who this month succeeded founder Andy Bell as chief executive of AJ Bell, said the squeeze on incomes from inflation and plunging markets this year have contributed to a significant slowdown in customer growth, especially among younger cohorts. The FTSE 250 group last year announced a bid to target investors in their 20s and 30s with a zero-trading-fee investment app, called Dodl , capitalising on a global surge in client growth for do-it-yourself investment providers as people put their enforced lockdown savings to work in booming markets. The 38-year-old chief executive acknowledged that the move to win young investors came too late, with Dodl launching this April into the teeth of a brutal sell-off, wh...

When working with affiliates, you must ensure that your brand is appropriately represented. This means that not only are the visuals and tone of any written content consistent with your brand but also that strict marketing compliance guidelines are observed at all times.  You are responsible for any marketing infractions related to your brand that occur across an affiliate platform. This includes breaching advertising rules, a lack of transparency, GDPR failures, and affiliate fraud.  Affiliate fraud is a particular concern because affiliates are evolving and finding new ways to engage in fraud.

Penalties may include significant fines and also be costly in other ways. Other common penalties for compliance breaches include a forensic examination of your busines...

A deteriorating economic outlook and intensifying competition were the main culprits behind YouTube’s advertising woes. Amid these headwinds, YouTube is taking initiatives to maintain its efficacy as an advertising platform. Tough comps, worsening macro backdrop and intensifying competition It is understandable why investors would fret over YouTube’s first revenue decline since it started disclosing the numbers in 2019. However, this revenue decline comes on the back of explosive, pandemic-driven revenue growth (when offline advertisers were forced towards digital advertising), hence it is natural to witness advertisers pull back on digital advertising spend in the post-pandemic era. More importantly however, growing fears of a recession on the horizon have also led to declining advertising...
