Quote '' - Alan Duncan, UK Shadow Secretary of State for Trade, Industry & Energy
Speaking exclusively in the next issue of Private Equity Europe , Alan Duncan affirmed Conservative support for private equity but also sounded a note of caution: 'I don’t believe that we need to see more regulation, but I do believe that we have a duty to ensure that the current financial regulatory structure takes account of the growing importance of the private equity sector in the UK economy and that it ensures a competitive level playing field between different categories of finance.'
