This is my first year chairing SourceMedia’s Best Practices in Retail Financial Services Symposium and I’m excited to be part of it. If you haven’t already glanced at the list of executives who have signed on to speak, please do so — if you have, you’re already aware that it includes an array of top retail banking talent from around the world.
