Under the Microscope remains a one of a kind publication, dedicated towards providing an analysis of the performance of local banks over the last financial period together with a range of insightful articles developed in-house by local KPMG thought leaders. In fact, in this year’s publication one will find an array of thought leadership pieces, aimed at stimulating one’s mind with a view to generating an element of thought and consideration to an ever evolving financial services industry which is now, more than ever, driven by regulatory and technological innovation.
