A very concerning trend has emerged in the financial landscape of the United Kingdom. One that threatens the very foundations of British business - a significant and steady decline in domestic investment in UK equities.
The combined ownership of UK quoted equities by insurance and pension funds has dramatically fallen from 45.7% in 1997 to just 4.2% in 2022, marking the lowest level ever recorded. This shift poses a grave risk to the UK economy's stability and sustainability.
