This week David Thorpe and Joseph Wilkins are joined by James Saunders, head of portfolio management at Tatton Investment Management.

They discuss his principles for selecting a fund, how he mitigates risk and how he balances risk versus volatility.

James also explains what what he thinks really drives returns: fund selection or asset allocation.
