Sunak revives talks with SoftBank on London listing for Arm

Officials and London Stock Exchange face uphill battle to secure UK role for chip designer’s IPO

Rishi Sunak has revived efforts to secure London a role in the planned initial public offering of UK tech group Arm, after months of political turmoil in Westminster derailed an attempt last year.

SoftBank has previously indicated that it wants to list Arm, the chip designer that it acquired in 2016 for $32bn, in New York.
