Great meeting interacting with other peers across financial institutions. Good blend of key note speakers and networking opportunities.
Nationwide
The event is an invaluable insight into the best thinking in the CX world of financial services. It's a highlight of my professional year.
Alpha Bank London
The CX BFSI Exchange UK 2026 was a genuinely valuable experience. The keynote sessions were powerful, especially the discussions on accessibility, innovation under attack, and consumer duty. I made some great connections through the 1:1 meetings, with several meaningful follow ups already planned for April and May. A really well curated event that offered insight, inspiration, and practical takeaways.
The Nottingham Building Society
Really enjoyed the forum especially because there were not too many people there. It made it feel intimate and easier to meet new people (vs. feeling like you are just one person in a giant crowd).
Monzo
Great event, would definitely return. Attendees, speakers and topics were all brilliant - much valued time out from day to day.
Just Group
Attending the CX BFSI Exchange UK 2026 was an incredibly valuable experience. Over two days, I gained fresh perspectives from engaging speakers and had meaningful conversations with industry peers
