The Top Class Wednesday Update was live
So we came, we did it, we drank all the drinks and then we left again. And now, as the covers are pulled back over #langcatlive until the early autumn when we will – spoiler alert – do an in-person Home Game in Edinburgh, we have that nice moment of reminiscing when we can decide […]
The Top Class Wednesday Update will do the show right here
Well, this is unusual. I’m writing this Update sitting in the bar car of the Caledonian Sleeper, about to pull out of Waverley on the way down to London for #langcatlive on Thursday, or tomorrow when you read this. It’s my first sleeper trip for at least three years – they have showers now! – […]
The Top Class Wednesday Update will accept being ambushed by cake
I mean, I’m not mad about cake to be honest, I’d rather be ambushed by an artisan-made craft sausage roll such as one may buy at Tebay, the most middle-class of all motorway services. But if you’re going to be ambushed and porky-pastries aren’t an option, it may as well be by cake. It reminds […]
The Top Class Wednesday Update is often inappropriate
A busy Update this week; looks like the holiday hangover period is well and truly done for. It may not be the only thing that’s done for this week, but entertainment is going to have to wait. The big news this week is the FCA’s new Consultation Paper (CP22/2, which must equal CP11, no?). This […]
The Top Class Wednesday Update is merry and bright*
*conditions apply And so this is it, siblings – the last Update of 2021. I think we all know not much work is going to be done next week, not least because the kids (at least up here) are breaking up on Friday and so we are all set for one of the least tolerable […]

Hi everyone, Mark here. If you tuned in to HomeGames last week with Petronella West of Investment Quorum, you’ll have heard Steve say that we’d do a round-up of HomeGames’ best bits this week. That was the plan, but on balance we’ve decided not to do a session this week – that’s right, you’ve […]
TEN THINGS WE LEARNED FROM STATE OF THE ADVISER NATION 2018. NUMBER 7 WILL DRIVE YOU WILD!
So, it’s my second to last working day before paternity leave starts and I’m ticking off items on the to-do list faster than an [insert witty metaphor here that I’m too busy to think of]. Our second annual State of the Adviser Nation (SOTAN from hereon) research is in the field and Chester McSillypants here […]
ALL ABOARD THE HEATMAPS. EMBARK COMES TO MARKET.
Righto, two things. (1) Iâ’ve given myself half an hour to race through this and (2) I’m very sorry about the pun. Terry’s idea. With both of these in mind, let’s move swiftly on. Embark finally announced its long-awaited charging structure the other day and you know the drill by now, we’ve got your back […]
