Archax is proud to be in the UK and supports its goal of being a Global Digital Hub for #FinancialMarkets. Whilst there are many things that need to be done and we are sure everyone will have their own opinion, we laid out a few thoughts in this video to help engage further dialogue around this critical technology.

UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is expected to talk about a #DigitalBritain in his speech today. In advance of this, we sent the video to all MPs, Lords and other governmental officials yesterday.
