  • The UK Listing Regime - Developments Since The UK Listings Review And Next Steps For Reform, Speech By Clare Cole, UK Financial Conduct Authority Director Of Market Oversight, At The Westminster Business Forum

    Date 06/02/2024

    Highlights

    • Thriving capital markets are the cornerstone of a strong economy and can power sustainable growth. Many factors contribute to a company’s decision to list and an investor’s decision to invest.
    • Our listing rules are only one part of the picture but we are doing our bit. We’ve set out our detailed proposals for reforms to the UK listing regime to encourage a more diverse range of companies to list and grow. 
    • In parallel we’re working on proposed revisions to the UK’s prospectus and public offering infrastructure to make it easier to raise capital. 
    • We are also refreshing the National Storage Mechanism, the FCA’s online archive of 3.9 million items of regulatory information, to make it more user friendly and help investors make informed decisions.
    • Our proposals are the most wide-ranging reforms to the UK’s capital markets in over three decades, driving forward changes to attract the brightest and best companies and ensure investors have the information they need.
