The United Kingdom's financial markets have recently faced challenges, with the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 indices experiencing declines amid concerns about China's economic recovery and its impact on global trade. In this environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be appealing as they often indicate strong internal confidence and alignment of interests between management and shareholders.
