A big part of @cityoflondon's #LondonRecharged vision is around supporting the #UK's brilliant #fintech sector, and that's at the heart of my ongoing virtual visit to #NorthAmerica. Fantastic meetings already with @nyca, @BatteryVentures and many others.

We know these will be difficult and even unhappy times for many of our communities and businesses.

But the fundamental strengths of London will help us to recover and rebuild, as we have done before. Read my statement alongside @City_McGuinness ⬇️

Businesses in the Square Mile are being urged to take advantage of measures announced in the Budget to support them through the COVID-19 pandemic, with the City of London Corporation pledging to support firms struggling as a result of the current outbreak. https://t.co/OmvofnEDHa

Further evidence once more that 🇬🇧's #fintech went from strength to strength in 2019:

🔵Up 38% to new record of $4.9bn
🔵2nd globally for total amount of investment
🔵Faster growth than #US, #China and #Singapore
🔵7 out of 10 largest deals across Europe

[Lady Mayor of the City of London @citylordmayor]

As @siftedeu suggest, @sequoia's decision to open an office here in #London once again demonstrates the growing appeal of the #UK's #fintech sector to #US investors, as the leading destination for #VC investment in Europe.
