ACI UK-The Financial Markets Association Information

ACI UK is The Financial Markets Association, the trade body that represents the interests of traders and brokers in the UK wholesale financial markets. ACI UK organises a range of business / social events throughout the year. The aim of ACI globally is to be regarded 'within the business community, financial services industry and by the authorities and media as the leading association representing the interests of the financial markets and to actively promote the educational and professional interests of the financial markets and industry' (Heering Ligthart, President ACI). ACI UK aims to achieve this with its work in three specific areas - Community, Education and Charity. ACI UK is committed to furthering educational standards within the industry, to maintaining professionalism and market standards. It has a big commitment to charity, supporting the variety club of Great Britain in its provision of Sunshine Coaches for disabled Children. For Community, ACI UK aims to bring its members and new potential members together in a business and/or social environment. These events include Speakers Events and regular First Thursday's social events. Through the global reach of ACI, its Committee for Professionalism (CFP) offers a dispute arbitration service, as well as offering expert advice and championing best market practices through its internationally accepted Model Code.
