CEO at Schroder & Co Bank AG Switzerland ¦ We combine 200 years of British investment tradition and experience with the qualities of Swiss banking
The UK has seen a major political shift with Labour's landslide victory raising the question: What does this mean for the economy and markets? Stability and Growth: Labour's strong majority promises much-needed political stability, crucial for businesses and investors to anticipate policy changes. The focus will be on boosting economic growth through increased public investments. Market Reactions: Mid-sized companies could see significant gains with expected reforms making it easier to float and undertake M&A activities. This could provide a much-needed boost to the equities market. The commitment to fiscal restraint reassures markets, though long-term borrowing might rise to meet public spending needs. The Bank of England’s stance on interest rates will be pivotal in the coming months. What's Next? Labour’s victory opens opportunities for the UK but the new government also faces a number of challenges that need to be tackled. The upcoming October Budget will be the first real test for Labour's fiscal policies, setting the stage for potential rate cuts in the second half of 2024. 💬 What do you think about Labour’s victory and it’s impact on economy and markets?

Director of Moreish | Bringing fame and fortune to brands that have a positive impact on financial health
Really interesting talk this week at The Financial Services Forum on what a change of government could mean for financial services, businesses and the economy. Sounds like Labour has been engaging with industries and businesses much more actively and positively than in the past, so if they win the UK general election (which you'd struggle to bet against) next year (likely early Nov). The view from the room of FS experts is that the impact will either be positive or neutral for the sector. Ultimately the FS sector is looking for stability and predictability following the International Capital Markets reaction to the disasterous 'Truss' approach - and all the noises from Rachel Reeves are a constrained and no harm approach in the short to medium term - which is what the sector needs right now. #FinancialServicesForum #FinancialServices #FinancialMarketing
