The Board of Patrons includes leading figures from the industry and the political world, including Mark Hoban MP, Financial Secretary to the Treasury and Andrew Tyrie MP, Chairman of the influential House of Commons Treasury Select Committee. Keynote speakers at City Week 2012 include the Rt Hon William Hague MP, Foreign Secretary and Douglas Flint, Group Chairman, HSBC Group.International speakers from Brazil, Canada, China, the European Union, India, Kazakhstan, Morocco, Russia, Singapore, Switzerland, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates will also take part.
 
As patrons of City Week, we are delighted to issue this statement of support for City Week 2012.
This important forum takes place at a time of immense challenge for global financial markets as they operate against a backdrop of difficult economic circumstances. Whilst governments want the financial sector to promote growth by supporting the wider economy, this has to be in tandem with regulatory reform to improve the resilience and stability of the sector.
 
 
We are delighted that the first City Week conference has come so early on in the tenure of our new British government. It is the first event of its kind in the UK, one that we hope will become a permanent feature. I know that it has been long in the making and congratulate its organisers for laying on such a splendid three-day programme.
