Regulatory reform, more stringent capital requirements, risk management considerations, a low interest rate environment and enhanced reporting requirements are all challenges to growth in the financial services industry.
Sophisticated strategies and solutions will be required for financial institutions to gain a competitive edge. We assist many of today's largest financial services organisations with their most challenging issues in every segment of the financial industry: consumer/retail banking, commercial banking, wholesale banking, mortgage banking, securitisation, capital markets, insurance, investment management, broker/dealer and real estate.

Banking leaders are being challenged on their ability to generate sustainable returns for their investors while meeting full Basel III requirements. Sitting on too many NPLs, mainly related to real estate and the corporate sector, banks are turning away from volatile activities and are getting back to basics which is regaining public trust by providing straight forward products that businesses genuinely need.

Limited demand due to global macroeconomic uncertainty, combined with competitive pressures within the industry, particularly in the non-life sector, maintains pressure on the industry to cut operational costs and boost investment performance. Regulation continues to change the business with insurance regulators in Europe to remain focussed on Solvency II implementation. Insurers need to have truly joined up conversations from a framework of finance, risk and actuarial skill sets enabled through people, process, data and technology. Digitisation and shifting customer demographics continue to change the way the industry operates.
