In this episode of PwC's Risk & Regulation Rundown podcast series, host Tessa Norman is joined by Mark Batten, PwC UK Banking and Capital Markets (BCM) Leader, and Conor MacManus, Director in PwC UK’s Regulatory Insights team, to explore the emerging trends impacting the banking and capital markets landscape. 

From navigating macroeconomic and geopolitical pressures, to responding to evolving regulatory and consumer expectations, our guests discuss the structural and strategic shifts shaping the future of the BCM sector, and share perspectives on how the sector can boost the UK’s mission of economic growth.

We also unpack the impact of changing competition dynamics, industry consolidation, and rapid technological transformation - including AI adoption and digital banking - and consider how firms can evolve their business and operating models to remain competitive and thrive amid continued transformation across the sector.
