"PA was not afraid to give us the bad news...that ultimately meant that we came out with a much better and much more robust delivery."

 

 

Martin Abbott, Chief executive officer, London Metal Exchange

 

Driving effective financial services

The financial services sector today is not what it used to be pre the global financial crises.

Organisations now need to ensure they are well positioned to respond to the fast moving capital market segment, meet the multiple challenges of regulatory compliance in insurance, and help banks to devise new channels to market.

Resilience and agility in this volatile market is the key to survival.

Capital markets

Our capital markets team are working at the centre of unprecedented changes sweeping the industry.  These include regulatory and structural changes around the processing of OTC derivatives, and major evolutions in industry systems and infrastructure. We help clients in investment banks, exchanges, clearing, and market infrastructure to understand these challenges, whilst we devise and execute their response. For example we worked with the London Metal Exchange to deliver market-wide transformation of its trade matching service.

Insurance

Our insurance team is helping both general insurance, and life and pensions firms to adhere and respond to regulations, restructuring, delivering growth and cost reduction.  We are preparing businesses shape and deliver strategies for 2013 and beyond, including a practical approach to deliver Solvency II.  At Aviva Healthcare, our award-winning work has helped nearly double new business since 2004.

Retail banking

In the banking sector,  we help banks with major restructuring, mobile banking strategies and tapping into the mass affluent segment.  We assisted a leading Dutch retail bank by reducing cost and improving transparency resulting in savings of €7m in four months and helped SEB Retail Banking achieve £10m in IT cost savings.
