As the voice of the UK investment industry, we work with government, regulators, and international bodies to shape the environment our members operate in. Our policy work is grounded in strong evidence, with publications ranging from in-depth reports and independent research to accessible guides and quick-read briefs for wider audiences.
We produce a range of publications that lay out our thinking on the key issues facing the industry. Some set out our views and position in response to consultations. Others provide guidelines for members on issues such as corporate governance, share capital management, and other matters related to capital markets.
Industry Policy and Current Initiatives
Our role is to enhance investment for savers, companies, and the wider economy by focusing on the issues that matter most to our members—like diversity, inclusion, standards, governance, and combating fraud. Through our industry-wide initiatives—from tackling unclaimed assets and operational resilience to fintech innovation, climate action, and stewardship—we identify what needs improving. Backed by member insight and robust research, we take action where it counts.
