Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when the Transatlantic Taskforce for Markets of the Future plans to report back to HMT; and when their report will be shared with Parliament.

The Transatlantic Taskforce for Markets of the Future was established by HM Treasury and the US Treasury on 22 September.

Its purpose is to bring the world’s leading financial centres together to develop concrete policy options and recommendations on further financial market innovation, with a particular focus on digital assets and capital markets. Innovation in these industries will be central to the government’s mission for economic growth.

The Chancellor has discussed progress on the Taskforce with US Treasury Secretary Bessent and HMT officials continue to work closely with US counterparts. Both parties are keen to ensure the Taskforce is a success.
