Challenges
The financial services industry has seen margins tighten over the past decade due to the rise of cloud-first growth. This industry evolution has led many financial institutions to increase their adoption of cloud technology to help:
Gain and retain customers: Customers today expect intuitive, personalized, and on-demand services. This requires not just a high level of customer service, but also a holistic digital experience so customers may enjoy seamless access to their accounts and assets. Strengthening the customer experience is critical to competitiveness.
Mitigate risk: Intrusions are becoming more sophisticated and are often aimed at multiple targets. Security departments and tools need to recognize these patterns to avoid vulnerabilities. Financial institutions should consider an integrated approach with intelligent technologies to keep their customers and themselves protected.
Manage compliance: Globally, regulations are evolving and proliferating. For example, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe and protect citizens data privacy. The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) detail security requirements for businesses to store, process or transmit cardholder data. Organizations can proactively use solutions to identify and address compliance before it comes into a regulator’s view.
Maintain margins: In any competitive market, margin pressure is a constant. Financial institutions need solutions that can provide better ROI from technology investments, and drive cost and productivity efficiencies.
Unleash insights: Many financial services organizations are burdened with legacy systems, siloed data, and underutilized data lakes, machine learning capabilities and artificial intelligence technologies. This can hinder innovation and cost unnecessary storage and license fees. Organizations can utilize their data to produce actionable insights that may drive new solutions and efficiencies.
