Usually on this podcast we talk a lot about the problems to avoid and examples to learn from. We help each other avoid beartraps in order to speed up learning. This episode is a bit different… Daisy speaks to Ariane Vickman, Head of Public Affairs at Starling Bank about the novel experience of working for an organisation with very few detractors.

Key takeaways include:
- how to use purpose to make practical change
- why simplicity matters, in so many ways
- and why Starling wants to carry other banks along for the ride.

Jack Ma has become the global face of Chinese entrepreneurship and represents the growing influence of private business and capital in China. Yet the decision by Chinese regulators to halt the IPO of his latest venture, the Ant Group, as well as subsequent investigations into the company has raised questions about why Beijing seems to have suddenly tried to exert greater control over the fintech giant. 

On Thursday, March 18th, the Ash Center hosted a discussion with Wall Street Journal reporter Lingling Wei for a discussion about what the future holds for Jack Ma and the Ant Group. Wei provides a deep dive into the events surrounding the Ant Group’s IPO and explores whether this latest action signals a fundamental shift in the relationship between China’s high-profile entrepreneurs and the state. Tony Saich, Ash Center Director and Daweoo Professor of International Affairs, moderates.

Thanks to the COVID-19 crisis, India’s economy is expected to shrink by at least 9 percent this fiscal year—a gut punch that comes on the heels of several years of continuously slowing growth. At the heart of India’s economic woes is a severe banking crisis that some have argued has sapped the vitality out of India’s investment cycle and consumed the energies of government economic firefighters. 

This week, Milan sits down with Viral Acharya, former Deputy Governor at the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from 2017-2019, and author of the recent book, Quest for Restoring Financial Stability in India.

Milan and Viral discuss the health of India’s economy, the “silent crisis” afflicting India’s financial sector, the future of central bank independence in India, and the role that Indian economists based overseas can play back home. 

Rebecca Park, Managing Director of Corporate Affairs at UK Finance talks to Daisy about the real role of communications professionals, why working in an industry body is more interesting that you might think and, of course, why everybody hates bankers.

She also dispenses some excellent advice, including: 

• One of the most valuable roles we can play is to be the person in the room who identifies and manages risk. 
• Building reputation isn't about talking to your customers about trust. Instead, focus on delivering what they expect from you - trust and reputation will follow. 
• Don't destroy your credibility by defending the indefensible. 
• Sometimes the right answer isn't to try and grab the headlines: communications takes many forms and the answer might be much more low key than that. And finally,
• Remember that not every decision needs to be taken right now. It might be even better to wait and observe. 

For all this as well as insights into how the financial crisis helped banks to navigate Covid, and sensible thoughts on looking after your team during an extended incident, tune in for our season finale.
