Share this post:
Stephen Jones, CEO of UK Finance said: “The Prime Minister acknowledged the importance of a period of adaptation to provide businesses with a clear line of sight on the new arrangements based on mutually acceptable high regulatory standards and an appropriate mechanism to resolve disputes. Early agreement on transitional arrangements is essential for a good outcome for businesses and customers in the UK and across the EU. Both EU and UK Customers rely on the UK for domestic capital raising, cross-border financing, and trade and risk management. Ensuring continuity is key to maintaining services while limiting damaging impacts for customers on both sides of the Channel. For a transitional period to be of any benefit, it’s essential that both the UK and EU agree arrangements as soon as possible.”

10th Edition Model Risk Management for Financial Institutions EMEA
Model risk management is entering a period of rapid transformation as institutions integrate increasingly complex AI, ML, and GenAI models into their inventories. Traditional validation approaches are no longer applicable and there is need for stronger documentation and explainability.
FVSBank Partners with MANTL to Accelerate Deposit Growth with Omnichannel Account Opening
Historically, community banks have relied on relationship-driven in-branch visits to open complex accounts. However, this high-touch model naturally limits scaling velocity. By integrating MANTL’s omnichannel software directly into its core banking ledger, FVSBank can slash retail account opening times to under five minutes online and under ten minutes in-branch. This strategy removes geographic restrictions entirely, allowing the Wisconsin lender to cross-sell specialized and specialty deposit accounts across digital boundaries without expanding its physical branch footprint or scaling up operational headcount.
