Not long ago, a dispute between a bank and a small business over a mis-sold interest rate hedge might have dragged through the courts for years. Today it is just as likely to end in mediation. Across financial services, firms are quietly stepping away from...
Imagine a leader at her desk. Slack is blinking, three email threads are piling up, the quarterly dashboard demands attention and LinkedIn insists she respond to “urgent” updates. Meanwhile, a half-finished strategy document gathers digital dust. This isn’t just busyness, it’s modern work-life captured in...
In boardrooms from London to Berlin the familiar rhythm of five-year plans has been replaced by the much less predictable pulse of five-day realities.

In 2022, the founders of London-based fintech start-up Fronted were struggling to scale, until they introduced a basic governance framework: a board of advisors, clearer decision-making protocols, and structured reporting. Within 12 months, they’d secured a major funding round and doubled their valuation. Contrast that...
