Murdoch,1 M. Angela Sasse,1 and Gianluca Stringhini1 1Computer Science Department, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT; 2 University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory, 15 JJ Thomson Avenue, CB3 0FD; 3Foundation for Information Policy Research *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected] Received 7 May 2017; accepted 17 November 2017 Abstract The study presented in this article investigated to what extent bank customers understand the terms and conditions (T&Cs) they have signed up to. If many customers are not able to understand T&Cs and the behaviours they are expected to comply with, they risk not being compensated when their accounts are breached. An expert analysis of 30 bank contracts across 25 countries found that most contract terms were too vague for customers to infer required behaviour. In some cases the rules vary for different products, meaning the advice can be contradictory at worst. While many banks allow customers to write Personal identification numbers (PINs) down (as long as they are disguised and not kept with the card), 20% of banks categorically forbid writing PINs down, and a handful stipulate that the customer have a unique PIN for each account. We tested our findings in a survey with 151 participants in Germany, the USA and UK. They mostly agree: only 35% fully understand the T&Cs, and 28% find important sections are unclear.

  • Cranfield 100 Women to Watch 2018
    The Female FTSE Board Report 2018 - 100 Women to Watch 1 THE FEMALE FTSE BOARD REPORT 2018 100 WOMEN TO WATCH 2018 Dr Patricia Pryce, Director, Beauwest Consultancy Ltd; Visiting Fellow, Cranfield School of Management Jacey Graham, Director, Brook Graham (in association with Pinsent Masons); Visiting Fellow, Cranfield School of Management 2018 is a significant year for women in the UK. It marks 100 years since women (over the age of 30) gained the right to vote, the unveiling of the first statue of a female in Parliament Square (Millicent Fawcett) and the first time a royal princess (Princess Charlotte) gets to keep her position in line to the throne, despite the arrival of a baby brother (Prince Louis). And for the first time women’s representation on FTSE 100/250 boards hits a new high of 29%/23.7%. These figures provide evidence that talented women are increasingly ready to take up Executive and Board positions; however, such women are often not visible to decision-makers who influence shortlists for Non-Executive Director (NED) positions in FTSE 350 companies. In this, our ninth 100 Women to Watch supplement, we continue to showcase the broad and deep female talent pool for ‘UK plc’ to draw on. As always, we acknowledge that it is neither an exhaustive nor definitive list of the only talented women available for board positions; neither is it attempting to represent the best 100 women. Our profiles reflect a broad range of backgrounds and include women who hold senior executive roles in FTSE 350 firms and other significant organisations such as large non-listed companies, major charities, professional services firms, educational institutions and the Civil Service, and from many different disciplines and functions.

  • Redstone Private Banking Update Q3 2018
    The Redstone Private Banking Update Welcome to the Redstone Private Banking Update 2018: Q3 We are now safely past the half-way mark for 2018 and as the end of the year approaches, we can see that many Banks are set to continue their hiring all the way through to the end of the year. This may be in part down to the record profits recorded across Europe’s largest private Banks for the 2017 year or if we look east, competition for market dominance remains high as firms continue to battle over the top Relationship Managers and their UHNW client books. As mentioned in our previous update, the ever growing importance of technological services in Private Banking & Wealth Management remains a focus and with the announcement of London’s first digital private bank making the headlines at the start of this year, both big and small players alike continue to add digital specialists to their ranks. Noteworthy Talent Moves in EMEA In previous years a number of institutions across Europe had all but implemented hiring freezes around this time, but Q3 2018 hires have proven to be a complete reversal. Accompanied with activity on an organisational level; Bank Vontobel completed their acquisition of Notenstein La Roche, Berenberg announced the sale of a majority stake in the business and two stalwarts from the Swiss market; Gonet & Cie and Mourgue d' Algue announcing plans to merge, the marketplace is active and busy but also definitely consolidating. With the number of Private Banks in Switzerland decreasing from over 300 to just over 260 in a decade, how long will it be before we see a household name disappear? In the Middle East, hiring activity has returned to its pre-summer volumes with the likes of DBS, LLB and J Safra Sarasin all making front office additions and with the potential of another a large scale merger on the horizon in Abu Dhabi, expect to see continued levels of activity in the UAE as move we towards 2019.
