Kennedy’s in-depth examination of Financial Services consulting markets worldwide reveals that, as the industry faces a barrage of regulations in developed economies—and perhaps soon in developing economies—new ways of doing business will be required. In fact, compliance and the need to find better ways to ensure financial success are already creating many opportunities for consultants.

Additional findings also show that, even in an era of regulatory reform, some forward-thinking CEOs are not losing sight of the importance of competitive advantage either. Therefore, some consultants are also being asked to address compliance in ways that will also improve their client company’s position in the marketplace.

Meanwhile, certain Financial Services client companies in emerging markets—many of which have emerged from the global downturn relatively unscathed—are pursuing rapid growth and hoping to pass their mature Western counterparts that are still focused on recovery and burdened with additional regulations.

And so, in all regional markets, demand for financial services consulting is growing and reaping rewards for consultants.
