Supervisors on supervision - culture in the financial sector

Hosted by the Financial Markets Group and Systemic Risk Centre
In-person public event (LSE campus, venue tbc ticketholders)
Monday 22 Sep 2025 6pm - 8pm

This event will explore how culture in financial institutions underscores, or undermines, confidence in governance and supervision. Together, we will examine how prudential and conduct regulators are grappling with questions of culture, what lies ahead for culture risk governance, and whether culture should be seen as culprit or cure.

Event Highlights:

  • Opening presentation by Stephen Scott (Starling Trust Sciences) on an exposure draft report on the topic, based on interviews with senior policymakers and supervisors
  • Panel discussion moderated by Clay Lowery (Institute of International Finance – IIF), with confirmed speakers: Jon Danielsson (LSE), Steven Maijoor (De Nederlandsche Bank), Carolyn Rogers (Bank of Canada), and Stephen Scott (Starling Trust Sciences)
  • Fireside chat between Andrew Bailey (Bank of England) and Randal Quarles (Cynosure Group)
