Bloomberg: Launching the Mansion House Accord
It was great to speak with Francine Lacqua on Bloomberg TV and Caroline Hepker and Stephen Carroll on Bloomberg Radio alongside Andy Briggs MBE following the launch of the Mansion House Accord.
You can watch my interview here.
In addition to the positive impact on pension returns and the investment in UK high-growth companies, I explained the multiplier effect the Accord can have with more pension funds standing as leading investors in infrastructure and renewable energy projects.
When I meet with sovereign wealth funds and investors overseas in my role as Lord Mayor, they tell me this would greatly help increase their investment in the UK.
The Mansion House Accord will mean more capital for UK businesses; it will boost foreign investment; and it will bring about better returns for savers.
