Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether the recommendations of Lord Myners published in March 2001 in Institutional Investment in the United Kingdom: A Review will form part of their growth and productivity plans.
Institutional investment is vital for growth, and investment in starts ups and scale ups is an important part of that. The Myners Report contains valuable insights that are still valuable today. However, the pensions market in particular is now significantly different than it was in 2001. The Chancellor has launched a landmark pensions review which will focus on increasing investment, improving saver returns and tackling waste in the pensions system. This is alongside other major initiatives to drive economic growth such as the National Wealth Fund to mobilise private capital and institutional investment.
