On 10 July 2023, the Chancellor gave his Mansion House speech where he presented a series of 'Mansion House reforms'. Building on last year's Edinburgh Reforms, the proposals fall under three themes:
- improving outcomes for long-term savers and increasing investment in high-growth companies by reforming the UK’s pension market through a series of measures (see our blog posts here and here);
- incentivising companies to start and stay in the UK by strengthening the UK's position as a listings destination; and
- reforming and simplifying the financial services rulebook to ensure that the UK has 'the most growth-friendly regulation of any financial services centre, without compromising [our] commitment to stability'.
The full Mansion House package can be accessed here.
The FCA has issued a statement in which it welcomed the Chancellor's speech and confirmed its commitment to work closely with HM Treasury to support the proposals announced.
