Podcast: Growth, regulation and trust: getting the balance right in a global market
Growth and innovation rely on confidence in the regulatory and dispute resolution framework that underpins financial services.
In this episode of Everything Financial Services, Christina Proffitt is joined by David Pygott and James Southworth to explore how regulation, enforcement and litigation influence growth, investment and trust across the financial services sector.
Drawing on their experience advising firms facing regulatory investigations and disputes, David and James discuss the importance of proportionate regulation, predictable outcomes and effective dispute resolution. They explore how firms, regulators and policymakers can balance consumer protection with the need to support innovation, competitiveness and economic growth.
The conversation also looks at emerging challenges including AI governance, financial promotions on social media and the rapid growth of private credit markets, alongside the opportunities and risks each presents for the sector.
Essential listening for financial services leaders seeking insight into the relationship between growth, regulation, litigation and market confidence.
