The 10th Anniversary Retail Banking in Europe conference comes at a fascinating time for the industry. Since the onset of the global sub-prime crisis, financial institutions the world over have been experiencing a period of great flux unprecedented in modern banking history. In such times, it has never been more important for senior figures from across Europe to come together and discuss the challenges faced today, while taking advantage of the unparalleled networking opportunities on offer.
This event will address many of the most pertinent and interesting strategic issues surrounding the industry. How can margins be maintained in the current conditions? Where are the growth markets? How are customer demands continuing to evolve? How can relationships be improved? In addition, to celebrate ten years in Europe, Retail Banking in Europe 2009 will include a brand new, day long strategic distribution forum, where senior figures from the industry will meet to discuss their views on the changing nature of the 21st century channel network.
