Business as usual is over. Our[ recently released report](Info.11fs.com/covid19) has revealed how the COVID 19 pandemic has created an immediate operational crisis in financial services firms that have so far ignored the digital imperative. The world’s economies have gone into reverse, we're on the precipice of a global economic recession and being truly digital is no longer just a 'nice to have'. So what does this all mean for the financial services industry? Will this be a time for reinvention and will established firms be able to keep up?
Tune in to hear our panel's insights, predictions and how they see the impact of the pandemic playing out over time.
