Join the guest list: Not much has changed but they live underwater

Not much has changed but they live underwater

Believe it or not 40 years ago Mike Chambers walked down Bishopsgate to start his first day working in the City of London - day one of what became a career spent in payments that has spanned five decades!

Boyband Busted's Year 3000 refrain "not much has changed but they lived underwater" could well apply to Mike's time in payments - nothing has changed yet everything has changed!

Join Mike as he takes to the stage and reflects on a career that took him from a Grade 1 bank clerk to running the UK's systemically important payment systems and beyond.

Mike's account of the ups and downs of five decades dedicated to payments will premiere at 10am (BST) on the 16 May 2025.
