Financial services

Let International (AT International) change the way you view your business

Success in financial services depends on a combination of strategic flair and good old-fashioned ability to deliver avoiding the major governance and regulatory pitfalls. If your institution is to be a winner then you’ll need to work hard on the strategic and delivery elements of the equation.

Internationalization is a necessary mind-set for many domestic organisations to benefit from economies of scale, local expertise, service quality, customer perception and reputation.

Customer focus is critical as customers become more demanding. Tailored products and responsive service are only possible with the right organizational structure, a system that actually delivers and unrelenting market focus, to ensure that our customers are treated consistently and fairly.

Consolidation and Convergence has brought about extensive modifications within the industry for many years; will this trend gather pace on a cross border basis if tax, regulatory and political hurdles can be overcome; the question is always the same, how can the obstacles be overcome? Our member firms can play an important role, in the internationalization of companies, based on our expert knowledge in each country.

Governance risk and regulation requirements have brought about a sea change. The way businesses are run has improved, but at a cost. These pressures will intensify and reputations will be won and lost, as will competitive advantage and capital needs.

Technology and human capital impacts across all these issues and is fundamental to service delivery. Getting both right is an ongoing challenge which still eludes many and it’s not enough to succeed with only one.
