Is this the end of global banking?

The global financial services industry has been rocked by a number of crises in the years since the 2008 financial crisis, which saw Lehman Brothers being liquidated and Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch sold at bargain prices.
The industry has been reshaped, particularly in the way that it is regulated, causing significant strain particularly for large, international banks. Several significant regulatory changes seem to signal that tightening regulation may be accelerating. Should this trajectory continue, the size and shape of the financial services industry is likely to change substantially over the next few years, possibly arriving at an end-state that may not have been intended.
Join the Centre for Dynamic Markets at GIBS and David Hodnett, deputy CEO at Barclays Africa, as he considers the impact of global regulatory changes on Africa’s financial services sector.
Date: Tuesday, 29 November
Time: 08.00 for 08.30 until 10.00
