The QCA is delighted to announce that Sangita Shah and Mark Taylor have formally commenced their terms as QCA Chair and Deputy Chair, respectively.
Their appointments come at a critical time for UK growth markets, reinforcing the QCA’s commitment to ensuring the regulatory environment supports the vital small and mid-cap companies that drive the UK economy.
Sangita brings a wealth of experience from senior board roles across publicly listed companies. Mark is a veteran of UK securities law and also serves as Chair of the QCA’s Legal Expert Group. Both will work closely with CEO James Ashton and President Gervais Williams to champion the QCA’s policy agenda.
Their leadership reinforces our commitment to advocating for a fair regulatory environment that is proportionate to the size and resources of our growing companies on the UK’s financial markets. This agenda includes key topics such as steering pension and ISA capital into small-caps and mid-caps, deploying tax incentives effectively, and cutting excessive corporate reporting.
A Heartfelt Thank You
The QCA expresses a huge thank you to the outgoing leadership for their dedication and service over the last few years.
Judith MacKenzie, who served as Chair, will remain on the QCA board, ensuring continuity and allowing the QCA to benefit from her ongoing expertise. Claire Noyce, the outgoing Deputy Chair, is stepping down, and we thank her for her considerable leadership and commitment to the QCA’s mission.
We also thank Georgina Brittain, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager at JP Morgan Asset Management, who has also stepped down from the QCA board following 6 years of service.
