If you're interested in investing you'll have read a lot about the exodus from the FTSE & moves to list shares in New York; another indicator of the UKs' decline?
Well not necessarily:
as Stuart Kirk (FT) observes:
'Forget liquidity & regulation & the like. The reason British companies are flocking to US exchanges is because they trade at higher earnings multiples &hence their senior executives (& their bankers) will be richer'!
So, not a good reason to change policy Rachel!
