David Harris of InvaTrust Consultancy cheers the consumer-led economic growth in UK, but adds, “We need more than the simple consumer spending in 2017”. Harris talks to Tip TV CEO Nick Batsford.

Worried where to invest in 2017? Harris lists the sectors which he thinks would do well this year.

Key points
