For a lot of financial services businesses, data got no game. Meanwhile, other industries have found ways to turn data collection and analysis into a serious competitive advantage. Out on the sports field, performance analytics are enabling athletes and coaches to reach peak performance, helping teams win and getting fans closer to the action. In this episode, comedian Olga Koch takes one for the team by asking: Can data get financial services to the top of their game? Joining her is Adir Shiffman executive MD of Catapult Sports and Andrew Walsh CEO of financial technology company Iress for a fun and frank chat about the game-changing potential of data.  What sexy stuff are you doing with data?

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.
