Age of Accountability: When Reputation Meets Regulation

The combination of a mission-driven UK Government, interventionist regulators and vulnerable consumers spells danger for any business which falls short of expectations of customer care in financial services, energy, utilities and other regulated markets.

Our expert panel will discuss the challenges and opportunities for firms to build positive reputations and relationships in a climate where customer neglect and poor outcomes can unravel the most carefully crafted brand promise.
