It has been a highly charged summer.  Between the big year of elections, a series of political and geopolitical surprises and a few market shocks, it has been anything but the silly season.  We have launched a few episodes of Fiftyfaces TV focused on investor identity and responsible investing and we have continued covering the issue of maternal mortality, women in sports and other matters close to our hearts.

Now we are back to our main series and we are delighted to bring you another 10 inspiring guests who share their insights on careers, markets, overlooked opportunities and advice for fulfillment.

Tune in as we cycle through investment opportunities in Fintech considering the implication of AI as an advisor as well as how it can help allocators to wade through and organize the vast document load that comprises due diligence these days.

We turn to the challenge of front-line client interactions and the changing shape of client need as markets and investment products evolve, get “in deep” when it comes to what really happens after a Merger, and expose the shocking gaps in financial literacy that are jeopardizing retirements and pension pots everywhere.

A veteran of risk management and non-executive roles shares her journey from “the age of the dinosaurs” in the City of London today’s different challenges, a fund manager recalls his father’s refrain to “take things back to formula” and an education investor stresses the importance of scale.

The guests on Series 5 are:
