The document discusses venture capital (VC) financing for early stage technology companies. It outlines the typical stages of technology company development and associated sources of financing. While VC is regarded as important for economic growth by supporting high-growth innovative companies, the reality is that VC investment has declined in recent years in areas like seed/start-up and early stage financing. There are also concerns about the quality and consistency of returns among VC funds. The role for government is discussed to help address investor reluctance and support potential economic returns through mechanisms like cornerstone funds and tax relief, but the industry should not become reliant on government.

Money plays a role both as a channel for citizens to support their candidates or political parties, and as a means for candidates and political parties to reach out to their constituencies. Access to resources for political parties and candidates also shapes political competition. Parliamentarians have an important stake in advancing the global debate on the role of money in politics. There are still many loopholes in political party funding regulations that are open to exploitation by powerful special interests. Loans, membership fees, and third party funding are all used to circumvent spending limits and other regulations. Many countries struggle to define and regulate third-party campaigning leaving them ill-equipped to prevent the channelling of election spending through supposedly independent committees and interest groups. Only a handful of countries have regulations in place for third-party campaigning and globalisation is complicating the regulation of private funding of political parties as foreign companies and wealthy individuals are often deeply integrated with domestic business interests. This OECD report finds that 29% of OECD countries have an independent electoral management body and there is no one-size-fits all model. But whatever the structure, the institutions responsible for enforcing political finance regulations should have a clear mandate, legal power and the capacity to deal with large volumes of work. While data clearly shows that sanctions are effective in improving compliance with the rules, many countries struggle to ensure sanctions that are both proportionate and dissuasive. One clear-cut lesson is that ensuring the effective implementation of political finance regulations still remains challenging in many countries. The Framework on Financing Democracy presented in this report shapes the global debate on risks and policy options, and provides tangible advice for the funding of political parties and electoral campaigns. The report also features detailed case studies of Canada, Chile, Estonia, France, Korea, Mexico, United Kingdom, Brazil and India.

On 23 June the UK public will be given what could be a once in a generation opportunity to have its say on the UK’s relationship with Europe. Whatever the result, it will have far-reaching economic and political consequences. In our latest version of LCP Vista we have explored how this could impact pension schemes.
Of course, whilst Brexit is naturally dominating the news, pension schemes need to carry on thinking about the best long-term strategies to meet their liabilities. So in this edition of LCP Vista we take a look at the latest investment ideas to help them do so.
Brief:
Sherry Coutu CBE is arguably one of the world’s most influential and best-networked people in technology and investing. Among many prestigious titles, Sherry is a Non-Executive Director of proptech giant Zoopla, London Stock Exchange and The University of Cambridge. She also serves on the Advisory Board of Linkedin.com, which was bought by Microsoft last June for $26.2bn.
After authoring The Scale-up Report, a report urging the government to help ambitious businesses scale to their full potential, she teamed up with LinkedIn Co-founder Reid Hoffman to set up and chair the ScaleUp Institute, an organisation set out to make Britain the number one destination for businesses to grow and scale. If Sherry’s vision is realised, Britain could add 150,000 jobs to the economy and £225bn to its GDP.
Most interestingly for investors, fast-growing scale-ups (like Zoopla or LinkedIn were a few years ago) make for very profitable investment opportunities.
Sherry will talk about the importance of scale-ups in Britain’s economy and how to access them as investment opportunities.

Before you start a business you need capital to ensure the sufficient requirements. Therefore, you can raise capital from a number of parties such as bankers, investors and customers. Before you send your proposal, you need to explain more about the purpose, budget, target and the amount you want to borrow. So this is an example of the best presentation slide.

It Ain’t Broke: The Past, Present, and Future of Venture Capital
BT
by Steven N. Kaplan, University of Chicago Booth School of Business
and NBER, and Josh Lerner, Harvard Business School and NBER*
he U.S. venture capital (VC) industry is currently
subject to a great deal of uncertainty and contro-
versy. Some observers and practitioners believe
that the VC model is broken and that the U.S.
VC industry needs to shrink.1 In this paper, we put the U.S.
VC industry into its historical context, assess the current state
of the VC market, and discuss the implications of that history
and the current conditions for the future.
We begin by describing the fundamental problem that
entrepreneurs face and VCs need to solve in order to invest
successfully. There is a great deal of evidence to support what
is now a highly developed theory of how the U.S. VC model
provides an efficient solution to this basic problem of entre-
preneurial finance. And there is little doubt that the U.S.
venture capital industry has been very successful. A large
fraction of IPOs, including many that are now among the
most successful public companies in the world, have been
funded by VCs. And, where possible, the U.S. VC model has
been copied around the world.
Next we look at the historical patterns of commitments
to U.S. VC funds and investments in companies by those
funds. U.S. VC investments in companies have represented
a remarkably constant 0.15% of the total value of the stock
market over the past three decades—the period for which we
have reliable data. Commitments to VC funds, while more
variable, have been consistently in the 0.10% to 0.20% range.
These percentages have not changed in recent years.
Third, we consider the historical record on VC fund returns,
paying particular attention to returns of post-2000 “vintages.”
Contrary to the popular impression, we do not find that returns
to VC funds this decade have been unusually low (or high)
relative to the overall stock market. This is true despite the
relatively low number of IPOs. Overall, VC investment and
returns have been subject to boom-and-bust cycles over time.
Based on our historical analyses, we make some observa-
tions about the current situation and consider what is likely to
happen going forward. The level of commitments to and the
investment pace of VC funds since 2002 have been consistent
with the long-term historic averages. At the same time, the
returns relative to the overall stock market appear to have
been roughly average. This does not suggest to us that there
is too much money in U.S. VC, or that the VC model is
broken. Instead it appears to reflect the natural evolution of
a relatively competitive market.
In fact, given the unusual and unexplained paucity of IPOs
between 2004 and 2007, we argue there is more upside than
downside for the VC vint ...
June 2017 - The 2017 edition of the OECD Business and Finance Outlook focuses on ways to enhance “fairness”, in the sense of strengthening global governance, to ensure a level playing field in trade, investment and corporate behaviour, through the setting and better enforcement of global standards. This presentation by OECD's financial markets expert Adrian Blundell-Wignall shows key findings from the publication.

Corporate Venture Capital offers the most direct path to strategic and financial rewards from new business models, emerging technologies and disruptive innovation.
The COVID-19 crisis has driven the world toward global financial turmoil — forcing CEOs and CFOs to urgently address the immediate financial challenges resulting from this pandemic.
