Episode Synopsis

A scarcity of charging stations in Europe and the US also remains a deterrent for consumers. Our second segment, which starts at 9:40, focuses on the charging shortage and who will pay for expansion.Guests: Matthias Heck, Vice President - Senior Credit Officer, Global Corporate Finance Group and Rene Lipsch, Vice President - Senior Credit Officer, Global Corporate Finance GroupHost: Jeff Pruzan, Vice President – Senior Research Writer, Moody’s RatingsTo on this topic, visit Moodys.com.
