In this year’s edition of Lloyds Bank’s Financial Institutions Sentiment Survey, the lender compiled insights from more than 100 senior personalities and decision-makers at UK banks, insurers, wealth and asset managers and financial sponsors, among others. The survey lays out the trends, opportunities and risks in a market still battling with high inflation and economic uncertainty.
The survey found that the largest proportion of respondents thinks that growth within the financial services sector will remain largely unchanged compared to previous years. More than four in five experts (86%) say that they will either maintain or increase their current investment quota over the next few years, with a particular focus on technology and talent retention.
