Meraki has been at the vanguard of the Financial Services sector for many years, appointing finance leaders for world-leading heavyweights such as HSBC, Manulife, Bupa, Zurich, Aegon, Morgan Stanley, Generali and Prudential, with a specialist focus on Insurance, Retail Banking and Asset Management.
Driven by the arrival of new fintech disruptors, the rise of new digital technologies, AI and cyber risks and decentralized finance, the digital transformation of recent years has sent shockwaves through a sector of legacy systems. Backed by a surge in pure-play solutions and shifting consumer expectations, these disruptions are rewiring business models and demanding that organizations modernize - or face irrelevancy. Big focus on new distribution and sales models, customer experience and journey, cyber risks, mobile solutions, and STP amongst many topics.
Over the years, our appointments have been marked by the exponential growth of Asia's middle class, prompting firms to invest into Asia as a core or primary market – this has positioned Meraki with a unique market strength in the sector.
Amidst this complex evolution, a broad spectrum of leaders has been required to master the unfolding of this new landscape. We’ve appointed game-changing country GMs, regional CEOs, and their management teams (CMO, Head of Underwriting, CRO, CIO, Heads of CX/Digital, Chief Transformation Officers, to those responsible for Distribution and Sales) to lead their organizations as creators of change.
