This is a result of the increasing pace of technology acceleration, regulatory pressures and new entrants bearing down on the dominance of incumbents.

These new elements are acting as a catalyst for the evolution of the traditional banking model, into new structures which are not only able to better meet the security and compliance demands of a digital world, but can leverage more abstract concepts. Growing interest in movements such as the Metaverse and augmented reality, as well as increased engagement with artificial intelligence and blockchain, are examples of how financial services are capitalising on new tech opportunities to better serve their customer base and build value-added services.

Cloud will form the backbone of these new banking models, allowing financial institutions to keep pace with the rapidly evolving tastes of digital customers, and will reinforce banks’ ability to innovate in line with this demanding market.
