NXT and the listings pipeline and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) 3: Rebecca Sellers - Financial Service Leader, EY LawIf an insurance salesperson fails to discuss a large commission to a customer, the sale is unfair. This recent finding of the UK Supreme Court will cost the UK financial services industry $70 billion in compensation payments. Closer to home, Australia has been grappling with the same mis-selling issues. Products are mis-sold when the people who sell them are not incentivised to ensure the best customer outcome. Some products are not sold to the right customers, other products may just be toxic in nature. What can we learn from the UK and Australian mis-selling experience? What changes can we make to our practices and laws to avoid the same costly path? 4: Simon Peisley - Head of Foreign Exchange Australia and New Zealand, Bloomberg, and Ian Waddell - Commodity Application Specialist, Bloomberg LP andChina - near term challenges and longer term opportunites.
