The Banking and Capital Markets community plays a crucial role in advancing resilient, sustainable, and dynamic growth within the global financial system. Chief executives and chairs constitute the Industry Governors, who provide leadership, define the industry agenda and drive change while the Chief Strategy Officer Community put into action the key priorities defined by the Governors.
By bringing together top executives from the industry, the community is the hub for transformational industry dialogue among peers, facilitating the exchange of ideas, best practices, and cutting-edge insights. Members of the Banking & Capital Markets Industry community actively work together to shape the future of sector, foster innovation and new business practices, and inform new policymaking.
