  • UK Launches £20 Million Campaign to Boost Stock Market Investing Among Households
    April 29, 2026, 2:00 AM EDT. UK savings industry launches a £20 million campaign featuring 'Savvy the Squirrel' to encourage more households to invest in equities rather than hold cash. Once keen investors in the 1980s, many Britons have grown wary due to market crashes. The campaign is backed by major financial firms like Hargreaves Lansdown, St James's Place, Barclays, and the London Stock Exchange. It aims to combat the perception of investing as risky gambling and target the 7 million adults holding over £10,000 in cash savings, according to the Financial Conduct Authority. Industry leaders call the move crucial to closing the investing gap and reviving a culture of equity investment. The campaign kicks off digitally before expanding to TV in autumn.
