Episode 28: Back to thinking about the future - Our mid-year assessment

At the start of 2021, we identified nine regulatory themes affecting the financial services industry as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Against a more optimistic economic outlook than anticipated, Orla Hurst revisits these themes with David Strachan and Suchitra Nair from the EMEA Centre for Regulatory Strategy – identifying the developments and actions firms should focus on for the remainder of the year. Tune in now! Key questions: What is the risk of credit risk deteriorating in the second half of the year? And how can firms stay on top of it? What do firms need to keep an eye on from a customer and conduct perspective? What are some of the challenges to regulators and firms regarding cryptocurrency? What does regulatory divergence between the UK and EU mean for firms? And how can they best manage it?   The speakers are David Strachan, Suchitra Nair and Orla Hurst.
