We were delighted to be invited to the FTT Mutuals Stage, where our CEO, Phil Cole, represented Derbyshire Community Bank alongside leaders from across the mutual and financial services sectors.
Having spoken at similar events in the past, Phil was pleased to be part of another opportunity to bring the sector together, share experiences and discuss the future of mutual finance.
The event featured a number of interesting discussions, including how mutual organisations can encourage saving and build stronger relationships with their members.
Another key topic was creating fairer financial products, with speakers exploring pricing, product design and Consumer Duty, and how organisations can ensure they deliver the best possible outcomes for their members.
These conversations are particularly important to credit unions and mutual organisations, where supporting members, promoting financial inclusion and building stronger communities are at the heart of what we do.
It was a great opportunity to catch up with familiar faces, meet new people and hear different perspectives from across the sector.
We are grateful to the FTT team for the invitation and look forward to continuing to be part of these important conversations.
