So, in a system that our interviewees said can often feel stacked against women, one very easily fixable area is communications (comms), the focus of this article.

Consumer Duty: Anti-Financial Crime Program Implications | Deloitte UK

The new Consumer Duty (the Duty) is the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) package of measures, which sets out higher and more defined standards to protect financial service consumers in retail financial markets.

Insurtech Insights Europe 2023: Tipping Point for AI? | Deloitte UK

A larger number of the panels, conversations and sponsor booths had an AI slant to them, but the main difference was the energy and tone of business stakeholders on AI. ChatGPT’s impressive, user friendly demonstration of AI’s power provided a morale boost for sceptical industry executives and those in the front office roles fatigued by failed AI / intelligent automation initiatives.
