Royal Dutch Shell matters to investors. It's the largest listed company in London, one of the biggest oil firms on the planet, and represents an enormous source of income for thousands of direct and indirect shareholders. And following Shell's acquisition of BG, one-time holders of British Gas shares may now find themselves with a small stake in the company.But with its industry rocked by the fall in oil prices, and cash tight, is the 7 per cent yield sustainable? And with environmental policies set to increase the pressure on fossil fuel companies' business model, is Shell still a buy and hold stock? IC natural resources reporter Alex Newman puts these questions to the Shell experts in this special podcast.Produced by Dominic Toms. Music by Blue Dot Sessions. Hosted on Acast.
