This panel explores what's bringing new investors to the table — from IPOs to UK Treasury Bills — against a backdrop of shifting goalposts on ISAs. How does the UK compare to the US on investing culture, and are there signs of green shoots? And crucially, how are platforms connecting with new cohorts of investors across social media and other channels? Together, Hargreaves Lansdown, AJ Bell, interactive investor and Fidelity account for a substantial proportion of the UK's self-directed investing market — close to 5 million retail investor relationships and approaching £400bn of assets. Stacey Parsons Managing Director, RetailBook Tom Selby Director of Public Policy, AJ Bell Camilla Esmund Head of Investor Campaigns, interactive investor Anna Locke Brokerage Product, Fidelity International Tim Jacobs Head of Primary Markets, Hargreaves Lansdown
