In Safe Hands? The Future Of Financial Services, an original report by SAMI Consulting and Z/Yen in 2012, asked whether the Washington Consensus might break. In 2020 we perceive that this is happening faster than we expected. In 2020, for the first time in recent history, we are facing a period in which global population starts to decline. In 2020, many of the current Financial Services institutions such as insurance are finding themselves on shaky ground. And, of course, the covid-19 pandemic accelerates many changes i the works, from home-working to moves towards government socialism of the economy. This briefing and update with Gill Ringland and Patricia Lustig will be followed by Q&A moderated by Professor Michael Mainelli.
