What is FinTech?
The ongoing digital revolution is transforming the way we access and interact with financial products and services.
Increasingly sophisticated customers, the Internet of Things and a drive to improve Customer Experience in a highly competitive marketplace means companies must change their operating models. Customers want choice, products designed for them and access to services anytime, anywhere on any device.
FS institutions are faced with increasing costs of regulation and shrinking revenue streams and profit pools. To respond to this businesses are looking for new technology solutions combined with an enhanced Customer Experience programme. FS institutions need to be agile but are often burdened with cumbersome legacy systems and siloed operating models.
Tech companies operating in the FinTech space are driving new innovations to overcome these issues to give customers the service, mobility and products that they want.
