Our UK Capital Markets technology and data capability helps our investment banking clients to deliver complex business and regulatory transformation, enabled by technology. The opportunity EY has a market leading Risk practice which requires a strong data and technology focus to deliver strategic future proof solutions with a control and efficiency lens. This presents an opportunity for Technology Consulting to support our clients in helping them to articulate their technology and data strategy and implement their transformations by harnessing the power of their data, identifying business enabling technology tools and capabilities and streamlining their technology estates.

In recent years we have helped investment banks improve their compliance with regulations such as the Basel 3 Regulatory Framework, FRTB and BCBS 239, and prepare for upcoming regulation around Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk and supporting our clients in leverage how to deploy AI in their businesses responsibly. As we look to the future, prudential regulation will increasingly have a Climate Risk component, and EY has been recognised as a leader in ESG and sustainability consulting. We also help banks to become more profitable, either by developing new revenue streams, or crucially, by reducing costs. While we predominantly serve the UK market, our clients are global, and we collaborate extensively with our fellow capital markets teams in EMEIA, the US and APAC. Our Approach to Transformation We are highly skilled at delivering and overseeing large scale technology change – from inception and requirements definition through to operational readiness. We prefer an agile methodology but are happy to work in whatever ways our clients demand. We are increasingly bringing technology assets to clients to help accelerate transformation. Our technology assets include proprietary EY tools as well as best-of-breed vendor tools. We deploy team members from on-shore, near-shore and off-shore teams, and often work alongside our major alliance partners, such as Microsoft, IBM, Snowflake, Moody’s, Service Now and Pega to deploy solutions. Increasingly we collaborate with FinTech firms too. We are passionate about keeping pace with the latest emerging technology. We have recently invested in senior hires in Cloud, Digital, Intelligent Automation, and AI. We combine the tech mindset with EY’s deep business and regulatory knowledge to deploy technology intelligently to solve business problems. We are always mindful of the role we and our clients play in relation to long-term sustainability and the drive to help financial services become a low carbon industry. We are already advising clients on sustainability and the enabling role that data and technology play.
