  • RNS Number : 9235L London Stock Exchange Group PLC 24 April 2018 LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE GROUP PLC Annual General Meeting Tuesday
    RNS Number : 9235L London Stock Exchange Group PLC 24 April 2018 LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE GROUP PLC Annual General Meeting Tuesday 24 April 2018 Chairman's statement by Donald Brydon I am pleased to say that the Group delivered another strong financial performance in 2017. We have continued successfully to execute our strategy to grow and diversify, operating on an Open Access basis in partnership with our customers. We are strategically, operationally and financially well positioned to capitalise on a range of opportunities ahead, and to continue to drive returns for shareholders. Against a backdrop of ever evolving macroeconomic, regulatory and political challenges, including Brexit, LSEG continues to progress strongly. The recently implemented MiFID II regulation, which has embedded Open Access as a key principle in financial markets, also offers opportunities as it is a model under which we have been operating for a number of years. Our strategic ambitions have remained steadfast. We are committed to delivering best in class capabilities, driving global growth and developing our customer partnership approach, whilst delivering the financial targets we have set for the next two years. This was clearly demonstrated in our 2017 results, with growth across all of our core business pillars - Intellectual Property; Risk and Balance Sheet Management; and Capital Formation. We have also remained focused on both the organic and inorganic growth of our business divisions, with a number of selective acquisitions including The Yield Book from Citi and the increased shareholding in LCH. For 2017, total continuing income rose to £1.95bn, up 18%, and adjusted operating profit increased to £812m.

  • Roundtable 4
    BRIEFING PAPER BRIEFING Female Founders forum: Roundtable 4 FOREWORD Britain is in the throes of an entrepreneurial revolution, with over half a million companies launched here each year. While we are home to thousands of inspiring smaller businesses, the challenge now is to ensure that the best of these businesses have the environment and the support they need to scale and grow. Despite today’s challenging macroeconomic conditions, we are confident in the pipeline of growing companies looking to float on London Stock Exchange this year. We work closely with a vibrant community of investors, advisory experts and large corporates to ensure that the UK is a competitive environment in which to grow a business for the long term. We spend a significant amount of time speaking to management teams and their investors about their capital raising strategies, explaining the fundraising options available to them and how they might prepare the business to secure future financing. Investors, fundamentally, are looking for well-prepared management teams who have a strong business vision. Our advice would always be to prepare as early as possible for an IPO and not be afraid to ask questions about the process. Our ELITE programme, which launched in the UK three years ago, has helped almost 90 UK companies prepare for growth and investment. The 18-month programme works with management teams to educate and guide them on best practice and securing growth financing, talent management and investor engagement. The community includes some impressive female entrepreneurs among its members – from Unruly co-founder Sarah Wood to Susan Rogerson (Ethical Property Company) and Virginie Charles-Dear (toucanBox).
