The UK Fairness Dying Spiral: A Drain on the Lifeblood of British Business

Retail buyers, too, are exiting the UK fairness market, with the Investment Association reporting a withdrawal of £14 billion from UK fairness funds in 2023 alone. This marks the eighth consecutive 12 months of outflows. Furthermore, the rising reputation of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) exacerbates the state of affairs, because the UK now represents simply 3.6% of the World fairness market. Any investor wanting to speculate £1,000 on this planet in line with the market cap, might be allocating simply £36 to the UK.
