    From Code to Culture: Building Real Capability in Financial Technology Teams

    In Financial Markets, where technology moves fast and precision is critical, training is more than onboarding, it’s how firms build lasting capability. In this episode of Financial Markets iNSiGHTS, host Tina Kane speaks with Michael Clarke, CEO of Mallon Associates, about the evolving role of practitioner-led learning in shaping productive, resilient technology teams. Together, they explore why traditional, off-the-shelf courses often fall short in complex financial environments, how hybrid working challenges institutional knowledge and why real-world capability, not generic KPIs, should define success. Drawing on decades of partnership with global financial institutions, Michael shares how embedding training within live client environments can accelerate onboarding, improve retention and strengthen both people and systems. The conversation redefines what “productive from day one” really means and why capability, culture and context matter more than ever.

    Business networking with purpose: How finance professionals give time to giving back | Part 2

    In this episode of Financial Markets Insights, we speak to Andrew Kaufmann, founder of Time to Give Network, a not-for-profit initiative transforming how the financial services community (and its ecosystem) interconnects for the dual benefit of business development and charitable causes. Andrew shares the inspiration behind TGN and how it works, in essence, an ‘exchange’ that matches senior level professionals and thought leaders willing to give up time (Time Givers) with those seeking to connect to them (Time Bidders), in return for a charitable donation. He explains how the model benefits individuals looking to make effective and meaningful business connections, individual and company CSR efforts, and ultimately, charity beneficiaries. The discussion explores the broader impact of TGN in reshaping traditional approaches to business development and industry relationship-building. Andrew also talks about the Network’s growth and expansion strategy, and how it is facilitating a more purpose-driven approach to professional networking. https://www.timetogive.network/
