I outlined today the crisis facing the UK stockmarket and the City. There could be almost no small and mid cap unit trusts left standing by 2028 at this rate. No broking or Nomad firms are making money. Companies are delisting daily. You would have thought that the brokers and wealth managers trade body PIMFA would be all over this but a release today show just how useless it is.

You want your broker to be good at his or her job and to be judged accordingly. You are so much of a bloody dinosaur. This is 2023 FFS. PIMFA the trade body for financial services has announced the short list for its 2023 Diversity & Inclusion Awards. You and I know that this bollocks adds to the cost base of member firms which you and I, the customer, ends up paying for. As for the black tie awards ceremony… in the end you know who is paying for that too, don’t you?

I will be doing some painting at the Welsh Hovel on the 3-4 June. I shall set up a webcam so you can watch the results of my work dry over a 48 hour period. But if that sounds just far too exciting, the Personal Investment Management & Financial Advice Association, PIMFA, has something designed for you.
