Commissioned Research and Consultancy

Our Work on Commissioned Research and Consultancy

"Our research and consultancy reports are the products of interdisciplinary collaboration and cross-sector partnerships that are tackling some of the biggest issues facing the banking sector."

Drawing on the expertise of a broad range of scholars and researchers, CBR undertakes commissioned research and offers consultancy services, which deliver original and impactful research to, for example, explore current challenges and identify best practice in banking.

Commissioned Research

We research and report on specific financial and current geopolitical issues affecting the banking industry. Grounded in quantitative research and analytical expertise, we provide insights and analysis on a variety of topics. Through our reports, we make the latest research findings available to our clients and the wider community. These can be used to inform business strategy and operations and/or as thought-leadership pieces for training and PR purposes.

Consulting Services

We provide consulting on a case- by- case basis, based on the availability of our members. Through our consulting services we deliver tailored analysis, provide informed advice and guidance to the banking sector, as well as to public institutions.
