Back Join special guests at our Summer Reception on 3 July

We’re thrilled to welcome the Rt Hon. the Baroness Swinburne and Charles Myers, Signum Global Advisors to the 16th Quorum 15 Summer Network Reception (3 July, Stationers’ Hall) for a candid keynote fireside chat discussing UK, EU and US elections, and their potential impact on pan-European trading activity in Equities, Fixed Income, FX and Digital Assets.

Some of the talking points will be the outcome and impacts of the impending UK General Election, the results of EU/EP elections taking place in mid-June and insights into forthcoming Presidential and national elections in the US.  This discussion will look particularly at how the outcome of all of these pivotal events might impact financial services firms based in the UK, and broader potential impacts in Europe and the rest of the world.

Other themes and trends addressed by our panels of thought leaders and industry experts in a packed afternoon programme include:

  • T+1: Lessons learnt from the US since the May 28 implementation date  (the panel includes Andrew Douglas, Chairman of the UK's T+! Task Force Technical Group).
  • How the Equities trading industry can boost turnover, liquidity and retailing, and attract other investments to the UK/EU. How the UK can become more competitive.
  • How the advent of algorithmic trading in the Fixed Income corporate bond space -is changing market-makers' liquidity provision.
  • Tangible advances in the tokenisation of traditional and crypto assets in the past 12 months.

Our formal programme concludes with a fascinating and topical discussion on the opportunities and challenges of generational workplace diversity, moderated by Joy Macknight, financial market journalist and former editor of The Banker, and including Dr. Megan Gerhardt, Founder & Author of Gentelligence: A Revolutionary Approach to Leading an Intergenerational Workforce.

Sharmila Whelan, Global Macro Strategist, Westbourne Research Services will MC the event, which will be followed by a networking reception in the splendid surrounds of the Stationers' Hall Garden (English Summer weather permitting).

We'd like to thank our sponsors Bloomberg, Euronext, LSEG, R3 and S&P Global for their generous support for this industry event.
