Hulk smash

Being a successful financial services business takes almost superhuman powers. You need the super speed of Flash to innovate and get products and services to market faster. Hulk’s exponential strength to handle the regulation that’s thrown at you. The elastic resilience of Mister Fantastic in the face of constant disruption and change. And the agility of Spider-Man to exceed consumer expectations. Not to mention an Alfred or Q by your side to help you keep up with technology. If it’s all starting to feel like mission impossible, we’re here to save the day. So, Upfront listeners assemble as we ask: How can financial services find their superpower? John Winters, the co-founder and CEO of the leading Australian investment platform Superhero, joins comedian Olga Koch to talk risk, resilience, innovation and building a business people love.  What’s your superpower?

Om Podcasten

Listen up! The award-winning, hard-hitting financial services podcast from Iress is back for Series 3. Emmanuel Asuquo is a financial adviser, TV personality, author and now the new host of Upfront!  He’ll be asking the questions that nobody else is asking and getting guests to drop some serious gems to help you shine. Series three is full of upfront conversations that everyone in financial services needs to hear, like: What do the most successful financial advisers do differently? Are financial services doing enough to help neurodiverse people? Is a fear of maths and numbers putting people off finance? Does digital transformation cause more problems than it solves? Do you have to get up at 5am to be productive? Is it getting harder to make customer experience a priority? As always, expect honesty, expect humour. Just don’t expect it to sound like any other financial services podcast. The first episode of Season 3 releases on Wednesday 26th June, and then every two weeks from then.
