The recent Z/Yen Global Financial Centres Index confirmed the UK’s status as a world-leading financial hub, but its position should not be taken for granted.
Our Founder and CEO, Leo Labeis, believes that to stay ahead, London needs more than a good startup story; it needs to back the market infrastructure that will define the next era of finance.
That means regulatory clarity, support for RegTech as a growing sector, and investment in shared digital standards such as CDM and open-source frameworks that make compliance more consistent, scalable and resilient.
The financial centres that lead will increasingly be those that turn regulation from a cost burden into a platform for innovation.
