Insurance and NBFI

Non-bank financial institutions (NBFI) and insurance companies are an important and growing part of the financial landscape and the client base of banks. However, with great divergence in the business models, financial strength, transparency and regulation of these entities, it can be challenging both to analyse them and optimise business opportunities.

We use a systematic, structured approach to analysis which incorporates key macro and regulatory changes and brings clarity to complex accounting and risk issues.Case studies, content and focus is always adapted to suit the local market and the target customer base of our clients.
