Full Report: KPMG On Bermuda Banking Sector
The 32-page KPMG in Bermuda Banking Survey was recently released, with the publication the culmination of a series of roundtable discussions between leaders and key players in Bermuda’s banking industry, including Bermuda Regulators, Board Chairmen & Directors and the Chief Executive Officers of each of the banks – as well as the results of KPMG’s Annual Bermuda Banking Survey.
Craig Bridgewater, Head of Investments & Banking at KPMG in Bermuda, commented, “To remain viable, banks need to make sensible returns for investors while at the same time, continuing to deliver value to customers.
“The results of the 2014 Survey indicate that achieving this is proving an ongoing challenge, especially when taking into account the new regulations and additional risk management.”
Key topics of this year’s report include: the move from customer focus to customer centricity; addressing cyber-security concerns and investment in new technologies; data, analytics and mobile technology in the future of banking; the realities of conducting business in a low interest environment; impacts of increased regulation on the Banking sector; and, the current landscape of Bermuda’s banking industry.
The yearly report aims to provide key insights into the performance of Bermuda’s banks over the previous financial year, and to facilitate discussion on the future of the Banking industry in Bermuda.
