Private launch event on ‘widening retail participation in European equity markets’

A private event hosted by New Financial to mark the launch of our newly released report on ‘Widening retail participation in European equity markets’ produced in partnership with Euroclear and PrimaryBid.

The research report focuses on the UK but also includes a glance at some other key European and global markets and looks at:
• why retail participation in equity markets matters,
• how direct participation has evolved in different markets,
• the main barriers to wider participation,
• the main steps that the industry, regulators, and governments can take to increase retail engagement.

We are delighted to confirm that we will hear from our guest speakers:
• welcome remarks from Peter Harrison, chief executive at Schroders
• Q&A with Andrew Griffith MP, Economic Secretary to the Treasury
• followed by a panel discussion with industry specialists:
o Anne Fairweather, Head of government affairs & public policy, Hargreaves Lansdown
o Chris French, head of UK core products, Euroclear UK & International
o Julia Hoggett, CEO of the London Stock Exchange
