FinanceX is an official Media Partner to CDAO Financial Services & Insurance UK 2026

FinanceX Magazine is proud to announce its official media partnership with CDAO Financial Services & Insurance UK 2026, taking place on 15 September 2026 in London. This collaboration brings together two organisations committed to advancing data-driven excellence across the UK's financial services and insurance sectors.

Hosted by Corinium Intelligence, CDAO Financial Services & Insurance UK 2026 is the essential gathering for data and analytics leaders navigating an industry in transformation. With rapid AI adoption, intensifying regulatory pressure, and shifting customer expectations, Chief Data Officers are being asked to balance strategic vision with operational delivery. This one-day event equips them with actionable insights, practical frameworks, and the peer connections needed to drive measurable business impact.

The 2026 programme welcomes 35+ speakers and 120+ attendees, including a distinguished line-up of data leaders. Confirmed speakers include Vladimir Bendikow, Chief Data Officer at FirstBank UK Limited; Darren Goddard, Chief Data Officer at Blenheim; Simon Lewis-Jones, Chief Data Officer, Risk & Compliance at Standard Chartered Bank; and Socrates Coudounaris, VP Head of Enterprise Risk Management, EMEA at Reinsurance Group of America (RGA).

New for this year, the event introduces two dedicated tracks for Financial Services and Insurance, alongside interactive workshops and closed-door roundtables. Sessions will unpack the FCA's evolving regulatory framework, strategies for navigating economic uncertainty in data and AI, and real-world applications spanning data governance, big data, data security, artificial intelligence, and digital transformation.

Designed for CDAOs, CDOs, CAOs, CTOs, CIOs, and data and analytics leaders, the event offers a rare opportunity to learn from and connect with the practitioners shaping the future of the sector.
