Reimagining Your Core: How Banks Can Thrive Amidst Rapid Technological Change

Narendra Mistry, CPTO of Universal Banking at Finastra, emphasises that banks must adapt quickly to evolving technology and customer expectations. Success lies in implementing efficient core banking systems, that enable innovation at scale and at pace, while navigating AI and data with a focus on mindset and business services. Lean systems, like those of neo and digital-only banks, are good, but long-term growth requires a clear vision, a strong culture and breadth of capabilities. For established banks with pre-existing infrastructures, symbiosis – where next gen solutions are deployed alongside existing solutions – can offer a fast way to deliver outstanding experiences, stay ahead of competitors and, when appropriate, ease transitions.

The conversation highlights the need for financial institutions to have a clear vision and strategy, find the right pace and technology for transformation, avoid high-risk methods, outline the challenges of losing market share, talent, and the ability to meet future needs if institutions fail to stay current and innovative.

Considering Cloud? Here are the options for banks

Join FinextraTV at the Temenos Community Forum 2024 as Tony Coleman, Chief Technology & Innovation Officer, Temenos and Keith Lynch, Head of Enterprise Business, EMEA, Red Hat dive deep into why choice remains a fundamental tenet for the banking industry and how cloud migration is no exception. A bank in 2024 has many options, whether it is moving to public cloud, where technology stacks are supported by hefty players such as AWS or Azure, for example, or working with SaaS providers. The conversation also shifts to expanding on the benefits of private cloud where cloud-like deployments are established.

Why Flexibility is Paramount to Core Banking Transformation

Join FinextraTV at the Temenos Community Forum 2024 as Rodrigo Silva, Executive Vice President, Americas, Temenos, and Charles Kim, EVP & CFO, Commerce Bank, explore the path towards digital transformation and the challenges that both organisations had to overcome. The duo delve deep into the journey undertaken to update 30+ year old core banking systems across the business because they no longer met the bank's needs, due to their inflexibility. Starting with customer service and deposit systems, they highlighted that the next stage of the process was to transform private banking and lending, where flexibility was needed when underwriting loans. Core banking transformation can also support the wealth segment, where there is more complexity and compliance needs to be kept pace with.
