Economic growth, the primary government objective, remains elusive. Unlocking large amounts of investment capital is critical to achieving this goal, yet it cannot happen without bold changes to the system.
New Capital Consensus (NCC) is a mission dedicated to driving meaningful reform in the UK investment system.
Over the past 18 months, NCC has worked collaboratively with academia, industry leaders, and policymakers to identify the systemic reforms required to connect purposeful capital to societal goals, offering better outcomes for both savers and society over the long term.
This exclusive event offered early insights into NCC’s launch report, Reviving UK Investment Flows, which is based on extensive interviews and research with nearly fifty leading industry stakeholders and outlines actionable recommendations for government, regulators, and industry to build a more effective and equitable investment ecosystem.
Speakers:
- Sir Keith Skeoch, non-executive Chairman of QBE, former Chief Executive of Standard Life Aberdeen and Chair of the NCC Advisory Panel,
- Dame Elizabeth Corley, Chair of Schroders and the Impact Investing Institute,
- Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator at the Financial Times,
- Stephanie Flanders, head of Bloomberg News Economics,
