The challenges faced by the finance industry continue to become more complex and tricky to deal with.
To give you an idea of how many issues are emerging, here’s a short list of some of the challenges that financial businesses are facing:
- Cyber threats
- Data breaches
- Increasing amounts of regulations
- Greater competition from challenger FinTech enterprises
All these mean that the proper IT support for financial firms has never been more important.
However, the future burns bright with technological opportunities. Various Innovations and enablers have emerged that can help empower you better to meet evolving partner, client, and customer demand.
Some examples include:
- Big data
- Robotics
- Blockchain
- Machine learning
- Artificial intelligence (AI)
- Mobile-centric operations
The Financial Industry is Undergoing Digital Transformation
A Forbes survey on customer and client engagement provided insights into the banking industry. 86% of financial services firms indicated that AI tools like chatbots were currently their top technology investments.
Financial firms want to reduce operational costs and make better decisions by using these advanced technologies, which is what 37% of the respondents mentioned in the same survey.
There’s still a long way to go since a lot more work needs to be done to complete the industry’s digital transformation process. Finding the right managed IT services partner in London could greatly help on that journey.
However, it’s clear that one massive challenge has come up for financial firms during this journey – and that’s cyber security. According to a recent report by the UK Parliament, it was revealed that over half of the businesses in the UK were affected by a cyberattack from April 2023 to April 2024.
