Future Skills Framework: Cross-cutting themes

Cross-cutting, interconnected themes that are important to the contemporary financial services industry.

Cross-cutting themes

Through our work with our members, we have identified ‘cross-cutting themes’ that encompass a range of skills, significant to financial services firms. They are not specific, singular skills, but a collection of linked themes.

The themes will help firms consider why these skills are important, the business drivers, key facts and data, and where they can find deeper resources.

Green skills

Sometimes called ‘sustainability skills’, these are the technical skills, knowledge, behaviours and capabilities required to tackle environmental challenges and unlock opportunities for growth.
