What’s in store for 2024? What are the emerging risks and structural trends that are shaping the regulatory and supervisory agenda, and how should financial services firms respond?

The transition towards Net Zero and the adoption of other Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG standards, is leading to a massive expansion of regulatory scrutiny and activity in the marketplace. This relatively new area of regulation is challenging many firms to keep up with the pace of change. In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s EMEA Sustainability Regulation Hub experts, Magda Puzniak-Holford and Ramon Bravo Gonzalez, to discuss how sustainability is changing the way companies operate, how regulators are expanding their activity in this area, and what this means for firms across different sectors.
The global banking sector has experienced a period of instability this year. Starting in March, a string of bank failures in the United States and Europe created uncertainty in the market and raised doubts about what would happen next. In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s Centre for Regulatory Strategy Leads, David Strachan and Irena Gecas-McCarthy, to discuss the period of banking sector stress seen earlier this year, the immediate supervisory response to it, and the regulatory changes we may see emerge in its aftermath.
In recent years, the easy availability of sustainable funds in the retail markets and the increasing amount of money flowing into these funds have made greenwashing a hot topic in the investment management sector. Regulators in the UK and EU are clearly aware of the potential for greenwashing in this industry and are attempting to tackle it through a range of regulatory initiatives. In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s ESG in investment management experts Jessica Hodges and Stuart Royden-Turner to discuss the key greenwashing challenges facing the industry at the moment, and in particular the role of ESG data in this story.

An increasingly complex technological, social, and geopolitical environment means that financial services firms must plan for disruptions to their operations that may not have been conceivable just a decade ago. With the UK financial services regulatory framework for operational resilience having come into force in March, and the EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act nearing completion, the hard work for firms to build their resilience has just begun. To discuss the implications of this for the financial services industry, and much more, we welcome Sarah Black and Suchitra Nair to the podcast.
COP26 galvanised and accelerated global focus on achieving net zero carbon emissions. Pressure is mounting on governments, businesses, and industry alliances to make net zero pledges. So, what does it all mean? How are plans to reach net zero being implemented within the banking sector?

In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Damian Hales and Rutang Thanawalla to answer these questions and much more.

Now that the transition period for the UK’s departure from the EU has ended, differences between the regulatory regimes in the two jurisdictions may begin to emerge. One area where these differences could be felt first is in the insurance sector. In this episode, we speak to Andrew Bulley, Henry Jupe and Felix Bungay to hear their thoughts on what regulatory divergence could really mean in practice, how the review of the Solvency II Directive could create an opportunity for divergence to materialise, and how insurers can manage a more complex regulatory landscape. Tune in now to hear more about this increasingly important subject for a post-Brexit world. Key questions: What does regulatory divergence look like in practice, and how might we see it materialise between the UK and the EU? How has the UK’s regulatory and supervisory philosophy traditionally differed from the EU’s and what could this mean for the future? Why do we see the review of the Solvency II Directive as a potential source of regulatory divergence? How can insurers cope with the practical challenges of managing regulatory divergence and regulatory complexity?
