- Promoting the importance of the UK jurisdictions, English common law and the UK position in dispute resolution as a foundation of the UK’s attractiveness for business.
- Highlighting the needs for new talent, skills and diversity in the industry and supporting the relevant work of the Financial Services Skills Commission.
