Digitisation of UK shares: The latest news and moving from policy to action

The digitisation of UK shares is one of the most significant changes facing issuers, company secretaries and governance teams in the coming years.

Following our January Governance Readout webinar on the Digitisation Taskforce recommendations and our June in-person session on dematerialisation, this next live update will bring issuers up to date on where the market now stands and what the latest developments mean in practice.

Our experts will cover the current direction of travel, the work underway to support the move away from paper share certificates, and the practical areas issuers should be thinking about now – from shareholder communications and operational readiness to governance considerations and future market structure.

Whether the latest political and regulatory updates confirm the next phase of activity or provide further context for what comes next, this session will give issuers a clear, practical update on the journey from policy to delivery – with more detailed sessions to follow as implementation plans develop.
