Pension funds worth £350bn have warned that relaxing rules around company listings will not fix the City’s beleaguered stock market.
The biggest collective owners of UK shares have warned the London Stock Exchange against weakening its listing rules and governance standards to help attract fresh business, a letter to its chair seen by Reuters showed. Britain's Local Authority Pension Fund Forum (LAPFF), which represents 350 billion pounds ($441.74 billion) of UK local authority pensions, said it was "very concerned" about the efforts of an industry task force led by London Stock Exchange plc CEO Julia Hoggett. That group, the Capital Markets Industry Taskforce (CMIT), opposed efforts to strengthen the UK's corporate governance code, with many of the reforms ultimately ditched in January as the government focuses on making the UK more competitive.
The London Stock Exchange (LSE) has raised only as much money in initial public offerings (IPOs) so far this year as Kazakhstan as it drops in global rankings.
