Discuss the Future of Exchanges with Us

We are delighted to partner with Financial News to present the third round of our global platform for discussion featuring some of the industry’s leading personalities: The Future Of Exchanges – a series of Breakfast Briefings and Webcasts.

Next edition: Equity trading – fragmented future or Europe-wide collaboration opportunity?

Stock exchanges, first and foremost, provide the financial infrastructure for public capital markets through which founders and owners raise money for future investment; it is also where company valuations are continuously defined by offer and demand, as the broader financial ecosystem considers the company’s outlook and achievements – yet, there is a problem.  As European equity trading volumes are hitting multi-year lows in 2023, doubts arise whether this is a cyclical issue fuelled by inflation, recession fears and geopolitical conflict – or a structural issue.

Can European markets continue to efficiently (and profitably) function with lower volumes, and with a fragmented European legislative landscape, what is the future for this vital part of the capital market infrastructure? In this session, we will dig into the challenges and opportunities for all participants to operate within a well-functioning and efficient marketplace – taking into consideration liquidity shifts from continuous trading to auctions and from lit markets to dark pools – and how it can be achieved.

Register now for the webcast on Thursday, 19 October and join us for a morning of debate and insights about this timely topic. 

The Future of Exchanges – A Series of Breakfast Briefings and Webcasts

Raising Capital in an Increasingly Digital Landscape

As digital assets become increasingly acknowledged by regulators and more mainstream for investors, how will the growing spectrum of instruments offer both returns and security for portfolios? More broadly, how should organisations looking to raise capital make decisions on the types of instruments they issue? And on what types of exchanges? How will the framework of capital markets evolve to support investors – and will regulators keep up with the pace of market forces?

Join us at The News Building, London on Wednesday, 23 November 2022 for a morning of discussion and networking with industry experts, connect with like-minded individuals and enjoy a complimentary breakfast at our Financial News headquarters.

Are Today’s ‘Empowered Investors’ Also Today’s ‘Under-Protected Investors’?

The freedom to allocate personal capital without the cost or boundaries that define traditional investment processes can often mask a variety of risks, even if it delivers relatively strong rewards. Leaving aside the struggles that regulators face in defining whether something is an instrument or not; or the kinds of rules they want to put into place around them and the ever growing online communities that operate with no effective borders; the question arises: How can we as an industry win back trust from over-empowered, but relatively under-protected clients and allow them to still harness the power of investing without the pitfalls?
