Iwan Griffiths, Northern financial services leader, said:
"The financial services sector is a significant and still vibrant part of economy in the North of England. The challenges which face the industry as a whole are replicated in the North; namely levels of profitability, the size of the cost base with consequential impacts on employment, regulation and changing customer behaviours. We work closely with our clients as they respond to a range issues and they value our ability to serve them locally with the seamless support of our wider firm as a whole.
"I expect that the strength and depth of the sector and the skills of the people within it will enable it to emerge strongly from the current environment. We continue to invest heavily in our capabilities to support them accordingly".
Regular events are run by the team in the North which specifically focus on hot topics and emerging issues affecting the financial services industry. They are open to all clients and contacts.
