Finance Forum – December
The Finance Forum is a quarterly breakfast event, for business owners and senior executives who are interested in the latest economic trends, in terms of what it means for the London labour market, specifically within Finance.
In terms of the political and economic background:
As the budget approaches, the big question is what will the Government do to meet its budget shortfall. Already the impact of last year’s budget has been felt in retail and hospitality, with unemployment now rising. In this session therefore we will be analysing the budget and looking at what it could mean for Financial Services, both in terms of the impact of where tax rises are likely to be felt, and also in terms of investment in the economy. With that, the Labour Government is investing heavily into the UK economy, with its Industrial Strategy now starting to take shape. Financial Services has been identified as a key industry, but what measures are in the budget to take note of?
In this presentation we will therefore analyse:
Macro Economic Data – Looking forward, what does the latest economic data mean for the job market across Finance
Surges by Sector – Spotlighting which sectors are surging in Q4 (Across Accountancy, Banking, Consulting, Insurance, Law & Fintech)
Skills In Demand – Which job functions are seeing the most significant change
Fastest Growing Companies – Companies leading growth in their sectors
Forecasting Future Hotspots – Predictions for industries and roles to watch in the coming months
