Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to protect UK-listed closed-ended funds against cost-disclosure regulations which deter investment.

In 2024, the Government legislated to enable the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to reform the UK’s retail disclosure regime to ensure consumers have access to the most useful information – including on risks, costs and performance – to support their investment decisions.

The FCA continue to engage with industry and will publish their final rules later this year.
