The UK Investment Landscape

The UK Investment Landscape is a new analysis of the capital needed to power innovation, productivity and prosperity by 2030.

The UK is home to £3.9tn of invested capital and a world-leading financial services sector. But this report highlights a £150bn investment shortfall. 

£1.4tn contributed to the UK economy from scale-ups

Scale-ups alone contribute and employ over 3.2 million people.. Two key initiatives are already underway:

• The Investment Hub – set to attract £10bn of international capital by 2030.
• The Mansion House Accord – unlocking £25bn in domestic pension fund investment for infrastructure and high-growth sectors.

Together, they could deliver £35bn – one-fifth of the need. But with £115bn still missing, urgent action is required.

The City Corporation is calling for:

• A clear pipeline of investible projects in digital, energy and transport.
• Regulatory reform to unlock institutional capital.
• Greater co-investment opportunities in growth sectors.
