The Woodford Scandal; and why it really matters…
Online
There has been much talk and many pages written about the Woodford scandal.
It’s a scandal that centres around a rockstar fund manager’s fall from grace; a scandal that leads to life-changing financial losses that have shattered the lives of thousands of investors; a scandal that has rocked the investment world and the regulatory framework that’s supposed to govern it.
The purpose of this event is to deal with 4 key questions:
#1 - What happened?
#2 - Who’s to blame for what happened?
#3 - How might the thousands of victims get the justice and compensation they deserve?
#4 - What changes are needed to help ensure that nothing like it ever happens again?
The speaker line-up includes:
Mark Bishop, Leader, Connaught Action Group
Meriel Hodgson-Teall, Associate Solicitor at the law firm Leigh Day, who is working on the case
Tom Winnifrith, Senior Writer, Shareprophets.com
Owen Walker, Journalist at the FT and author of “Built on a Lie: The Rise and Fall of Neil Woodford and the Fate of Middle England’s Money”
Our speakers will bring to life what has been Europe’s biggest investment scandal for over a decade; and that’s saying something!
Here’s some recent media coverage about the scandal:
Calls grow for FCA to end “deafening silence” as Woodford update “adds insult to injury”
