Over the past decade, the financial industry has had to reform extensively in order to answer its critics and to serve society more efficiently. However, given the rise of financial technology, the impacts of heightened regulation, and the ever-changing geopolitical scene, the upcoming decade could be one of even greater transformation. The financial sector will need to respond to the increasing pressures to address issues such as the climate crisis and rising inequality. How will finance embrace the opportunities and adapt to the challenges presented by the upcoming decade, to shape the world in years to come?
