Finance & Insurance
APRA’s recent review of CBA’s culture and the 2018 Hayne Royal Commission have both set a much higher bar for the governance, leadership, ethics and culture of Australia’s financial services and insurance organisations – with a natural flow-on effect to all other organisations too.
Insync’s recent research with the Australian HR Institute, 5 Hard Truths of Workplace Culture, is a rallying cry for leaders to role model and galvanise a much more ethical and sustainable culture in their organisations from the inside out. This will require leaders to embed a much more holistic view of sustainable high performance, recognising that the long term interests of employees, customers, the community and shareholders are inseparable.
Building a more ethical and sustainable culture will require a much greater focus by boards and executives on governance and assurance, culture and accountability, non-financial risks and the robustness of their organisation’s risk culture. This will provide many challenges but will also represent a great opportunity for organisations to differentiate themselves in a crowded and competitive market.
Other industry challenges include building sustainable shareholder value and profitability in an environment of:
- increasing regulation
- sustained low growth
- erosion of consumer trust
- greater competition, digital disruption and new business models including from fintech companies free from legacy systems and structures
