Sibos went to China for the first time this year. So did Hannah Polson. In between trying new food, she saw just how different banking, payment and fintech is in the world’s largest consumer market. Here she files a report from Beijing, telling how some of the most eye-opening stories and trends will impact East Asia and beyond. https://bit.ly/4fD3R0H

Public Relations and Communications Services
The specialist global agency for finance, technology and the climate transition.
About us
Cognito is the global communications agency for finance, technology and the climate transition. We advise organizations, from established leaders to startup challengers, on how to manage reputation, handle threats and build value in competitive and disrupted markets. This purpose has been at the core of what we do since we started, in the aftermath of the dot-com boom in 2000. With creative content and an understanding of channel complexity, we protect and grow our clients’ businesses through purpose-driven communications and stakeholder engagement. Our team of 80+ Cognitians around the world bring together 20 languages from 15 countries. With big agency and in-house expertise, we work across corporate communications, PR, digital marketing, social, branding and creative design. You can find us on the ground in key financial markets - London, Amsterdam, DACH, New York, Singapore, Hong Kong and Sydney. From the start, Cognito has been built on the assumption that finance is different. That’s why since 2000 we've consistently hired people with varied careers as financial journalists, bankers, FS marketing executives, advertising planners and social media strategists. Our clients are varied, and our role can include outsourced marketing support, media relations, branding, social strategy or strategic advice and issues management. Whatever their differing needs, most clients would agree that part of what makes Cognito an effective partner for them is our specialization and our recognition that finance is different. With offices in London, Amsterdam, Düsseldorf, New York, Singapore, Sydney and Hong Kong, we help firms improve their performance and manage their business' reputation. We provide planning, marketing, design, PR and social campaigns, together with proprietary software that delivers measurability and intelligence.

Here’s everything you need to know about the first week of COP29, from Charlie Morrow and the Sustainability Team: • Delegates are working on the New Collective Quantified Goal for climate finance, but they have not made any major breakthroughs yet. • Authorities approved new carbon market regulations, but some worry the rushed process may have damaged trust • Development banks and private companies pledged to increase climate funding, with businesses committing $65 billion annually. • Despite political uncertainty and concerns about a second Trump presidency, many believe America can still quietly advance climate action. Our weekly newsletter sifts through all the news coming out of COP29 so you don’t have to – contact sustainability@cognitomedia.com to sign up.

Andrew Marshall’s pandemic-era screed against double chins and unflattering lighting went semi-viral. Now, well into the perma-hybrid era, he’s wondering if it even matters anymore. Spoiler alert – it does. https://bit.ly/3O45l7R

Finding the right PR agency, Scott Schuberg argues, is a lot like dating. You’re trying to find out the truth – not simply what someone thinks you want to hear. A veteran buyer and seller, Scott here lays out the foundations of success can be ‘co-created’ at the beginning of a relationship. https://bit.ly/4etFLns

Charlie Morrow three years ago decided to turn his interest in sustainability into a full-time area of focus. We asked him to compare what’s shifted as part of our series revisiting pieces from our content archive. Just days away from #COP29, there’s far more scrutiny even as investing in clean energy and finance has continued to grow. Here he talks about maintaining a balance between mollifying critics and being true to a company’s vision. https://bit.ly/40FtDwK
