The Profession held a joint seminar on ‘Human Genetics: Uncertainties and the Financial Implications Ahead’ with the Royal Society of London in September 1996. Papers submitted to that seminar included four from the profession and several from the medical, legal, social and scientific communities.This Sessional Meeting is designed to provide a forum for discussion amongst a wider actuarial audience. The topic is important to the profession, not only in relation to life insurance, but perhaps even more in relation to health insurance. The four papers by the actuarial authors are reproduced, together with a short third party summary of the whole seminar and a more detailed summary by C.D. Daykin of the actuarial, legal and social points raised in the discussions.The meeting takes the form of a panel discussion. Each of the panellists is to be invited to make introductory comments on their papers to update them where appropriate in the light of developments since September 1996 (for example the ABI statement) and will also suggest specific topics for discussion at the meeting. There is then an opportunity for members and guests to raise and debate all relevant issues.

Blockchain technologies are drawing attention after the success of cryptocurrency. Due to the inherent features, such as decentralization, transparency, security, immutability, and integrity, they have already become the prime choice of researchers and scientists. Blockchain is among the most disruptive innovations which have the potential to reshape the behavior of many businesses and industries. Blockchain applications are based on DLT in which public ledger can be accessed by everyone by eliminating the need of third party. Although the power of AI allows the intelligence and decision-making powers of machines in the same way as humans, it relies on a unified model for training and validating datasets. However, the unified nature of AI poses many threats to data privacy and data tempering. Thus, the unique features of blockchain technology makes its application attractive in almost every field including financial services, healthcare, IoT, and many more. This chapter presents a comprehensive overview on blockchain and its integration with AI to explore numerous capabilities.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to use psychological theory to improve our understanding of financial advice-taking. The paper studies how a working alliance between financial service customers and advisors affects the advisor's assessment of the financial service buyer's perceived risk preferences, and what role trust plays as a mediating variable. Design/methodology/approach – The paper obtained data by means of a questionnaire that was answered by 375 matched pairs of bank advisors and customers. Findings – This paper explains how the working alliance method – a concept from psychotherapeutic theory – between financial service customers and advisors affects the advisor's understanding of the financial service buyer's perceived risk preferences. The paper also finds that the role of trust is perceived differently by the advisor and the customer. Advisors see that as their clients learn to trust them they lose touch with the customer's perceived risk preferences, whereas customers do not perceive that their trust in the advisor has any relationship to their risk preferences. Practical implications – This results suggest that advisors lose touch with the risk preferences of trusting customers, and that psychological methods are needed if the advisor should actually understand customer perceived risk preferences. Originality/value – The paper advances psychological methods in marketing, and provides a partial answer to the difficulties of financial advice giving.

Purpose This paper aims to explore the impact of the internet and related information and communications technology developments on how financial services (FS) are distributed and how customers are managed, in particular, not only how companies can differentiate between “good” and “bad” customers and manage them appropriately but also how customers can be “bad” and escape the consequences. It also explores how changes in information asymmetry between suppliers and customers affects who gains or loses from the relationship between them. Design/methodology/approach The data for the article are from the authors’ consulting and conference chairing experience. The article is in the form of a reflection on this, rather than a hypothesis-based research article. Findings One of its findings is that those responsible for controlling damage done to companies by fraudulent or negative value customers (typically those managing underwriting or risk) and those responsible for recruiting, retaining and developing customers (typically marketing, sales and customer service) do not work closely enough together, and this can lead to not only damage to shareholder value but also damage to the customer experience. Research limitations/implications The paper identifies the need for more research covering the processes, data, analysis, systems and strategies required to manage both good and bad customers and the practical problems of implementation. Practical implications The main practical implication is that in designing products and the customer service experience, FS marketers need to take into account much more systematically the “dark side” of customer activity. Originality/value This paper is one of the first to explore its issues in detail.

SF Express can carry out supply chain finance due to its perfect management system and advanced information management system. SF Express is outstanding from nearly 700,000 logistics companies in China and becomes a leading company with its complete management system and rich management experience. A good management system can greatly reduce the loss of internal management, avoid the loss caused by the failure of control, and improve the operating efficiency. Secondly, from an operational perspective, supply chain finance promotes great integration across business areas. While developing supply chain financial services to earn additional income, it strengthens the original customers’ preference, consolidates the main business, looks for stability and changes, and reduces the operational risks brought by the launch of new businesses. From the perspective of the whole supply chain, this business increases the overall economic value of the supply chain and relieves the financing difficulties. However, there are still imperfect mechanisms for controlling risk, limited funding, and insufficient innovation. The potential of the logistics industry and the increasing financing needs still demand us to stop. The development of third-party logistics and supply chain financial services led by SF Express has become inevitable.
