— Since the vote to leave the EU, international issuers have delivered a vote of confidence in London’s capital market with the proportion of non-UK issuers increasing from 40% to 55% by capital raised
— Contrary to the popular narrative, European issuers (excluding UK) have increased the amount of capital they raise in London with a London listing enabling issuers to tap internationally-focused investors
— In this time period, we have also seen the amount raised in London remained unaffected post referendum
— London Stock Exchange has prepared an impact assessment in case of a Hard Brexit scenario
