From Secure to Trusted: A Journey to Digital Leadership

This new decade has already provided many lessons. One is that the mantra “never let a good crisis go to waste” could have been written for the cybercriminal fraternity. Another is that the concept of digital trust is rapidly becoming a business imperative in the digital era. At the heart of this all, as always, is security: the critical barrier between data integrity and compromise; and a fundamental building block for digital trust. But trust encompasses so much more. From privacy and compliance to sustainability; from ecommerce to trusted ecosystems; and from ethics and transparency to brand reputation and loyalty. Engendering digital trust is a business imperative, but it requires leadership and governance from board level to ensure that it becomes part of the very fabric of the business.

Defining the DNA of the “Anywhere, Anytime” Future in Finance

One of the most unexpected and valuable outcomes of 2020 has been rapid innovation to support hybrid ways of working. While over 40% of the workforce was forced to shift to remote ways of working, frontline and field workers continued to adapt and find new (safer) ways to do their jobs. When asked which areas were most likely to be permanently changed as a result of COVID-19, 38% of IT and business leaders said their work models would be redesigned to support a hybrid workforce onsite and at home. The promise of a parity of experience for workers as they move between locations, devices and digital resources is decidedly within reach. Automation and augmentation of work has accelerated business processes reliant on complex workflows and processing of vast amounts of data. Work culture, once largely defined by HR practices and in-person experiences, is now evolving via digital experiences – from AI enabled onboarding and education to collaboration. Workspaces are also evolving - digitally and physically- as intelligent digital platforms and as instrumented physical locations; each ready to securely connect people, data, applications and devices.

Embracing Fintech Partnerships To Build the Future of Financial Services

In today’s digital world, the bank is no longer the only creator of value for its customers. Today, competitive strength comes from having good connections with other players and from adding or sharing value. Banks must collaborate with fintech challengers to stay relevant in the growing digital economy. Fintech partnerships, both locally and regionally, can add a competitive edge. Banks can leverage cloud marketplaces to enable plug-and-play access to fintech solutions, such as superior onboarding and origination solutions to drive lending.

How to Deliver Next Generation Services and Experience in Banking

Banking Industry is in the midst of tremendous transformation both led and assisted by technology. Evolving customer profile, higher awareness about the value of data, emergence of disruptive trends (fintech’s, blockchain, etc), rising cost pressures and unfortunately the Covid-19 pandemic have put immense pressure on the CIOs and technology providers to prepare for the “next normal”. Though recently, The Banks are among the industries which have already embarked on the journey. Besides strong alignment towards the assertive targets, the challenges may hardly ever be omitted. Completixity & diversity of existing systems, escalated security risks, tight budgets, talent availability are among the first ones to count. Above all, every major transformation program targeting a tectonic change requires the organization to instill the relevant cultural shift. Embedding and adopting a new culture could be achievable when there is a perspicuous methodology and insistent effort.

From Banks to Banking: The Evolution of Banking Industry

Banks have been very successful and highly adaptable organizations for centuries, but the rise of digital is raising the bar and many organizations have been disconnected from their customers. Bank products do not address customers' needs or their complexity and the abundant choice make it impossible for customers to navigate. Gone are the days, where a branch manager knew his clients and customers trusted the bank to help them to address their financial needs.
As a result of this disconnect, banks find themselves at a crossroads where they need reevaluate their future role in a customer's financial life. The question is if the traditional product centric push model will be able to deliver high customer engagement and high level of customer trust or if customers ultimately want and need something else – advice, transparency, and simplicity. New technologies such as artificial intelligence, open banking, and cloud can facilitate the transformation, but essentially a rethinking of business models, KPIs, incentives, customer data management and customer education will be needed to deliver these new experiences.
