A vision for the future: delivering growth in the age of transformation- S6E9

In this episode, host Tessa Norman is joined by Miles Celic, Chief Executive Officer of TheCityUK, and Darren Ketteringham, PwC UK’s Financial Services Industry Leader, to discuss a future vision for the UK financial and related professional services industry.

Our guests reflect on the themes of the Vision 2025 report, which was published jointly by TheCityUK and PwC in 2017, and which set out a roadmap for a highly digitised, innovative and customer-centric industry by 2025. Now, a month into 2025, and with the Government on the cusp of setting out its future strategy for the industry, we discuss progress made since the report’s publication, and the actions needed to ensure the industry is able to capitalise on the transformative changes expected over the next 5-10 years. 

Our guests explore the driving forces of technological transformation and the transition to net zero, and look at progress across themes such as customer centricity, regional development, and talent and skills. We also discuss the collective role of Government, industry and the regulators in enabling the sector to thrive, and to maximise its potential to drive sustainable inclusive economic growth.
