Can the Tories win back the trust of the City after two years of turmoil? Will Labour’s new prawn cocktail offensive sway the hearts and minds of the Square Mile?

City A.M.’s new Bonds & Ballots series unpicks the ties between Westminster and the City and gets to the heart of the issues shaping the debate on business ahead of the election.

Every Friday, join us as we sit down with the key decision makers in both government and the Square Mile as both Labour and the Conservative party lay out their plans to revive UK business.

This week, we went down to Westminster, into the Treasury, to quiz the City Minister Bim Afolami on capital markets reform, reviving retail investment and how to restore the fortunes of the UK and London as a hub for investment.
