"The biggest risk facing U.K. equities at the moment is that we don't go into recession, and that is probably the first time in 25 years I have said that," Lee told CNBC's "Squawk Box Europe" on Wednesday. "Because the market is so certain that we are going into a recession and yet...some of the economic indicators, some of the company reporting, would suggest that we are not.

"Since the post-war period, every single recession in the U.K. or the U.S. has been associated with a significant pickup in unemployment, and we are just not seeing that," Lee added.
