The inaugural Global Bank Review covers a range of areas, from the decade ahead in regulation, to fintech and cyber security, to what Brexit and climate change mean for banks.

It also peers into the crystal ball to look at the bank of 2040.

This is a publication by our Global Banks Sector Group. The group brings together the people at Herbert Smith Freehills who live and breathe banks across the major financial centres of the world.

We hope you enjoy reading the Global Bank Review as much as we enjoyed writing it.
