The Digital Big Dig Connecting Investment in Channels with Investment in Back Office

An IDC report released last week cited what may seem like a staggering number – that banks are forecasted to spend $16.6 billion on digital transformation initiatives this year. Additionally, by 2019, one third of IT budgets at US banks will be dedicated to achieving digital transformation, a CAGR of 10.4%. This may seem like an astounding number ...

How banks and financial services players will monetise open banking

Open data - competition cuts both ways

Over the past five years there have been dire predictions about the future of banking – where startups with a good idea will somehow put large global banks out of business. This is the same existential nonsense that has occurred in every technology cycle – and every time large banks with deep R&D budgets figure out how to incorporate new technology into their existing infrastructure. There should be no doubt that banks will once again take the best ideas in the marketplace and incorporate them within their existing franchise. FinTech today as always will do a great service to banks by challenging them to be better. History shows that the banks who are awake and listening will become bigger and better; and those who are asleep will fall by the wayside.

CommBank looks for 'Signals' from consumer spending data

CommBank is monetizing the gold mine of data they have into a value-added service for consumers. Even better - it adds a social component to banking that will be appreciated by young customers because their lives are heavily influenced by social media. At a time when innovation in financial services seem to be the purview of non-bank start-ups, its great to see a traditional bank leverage the data assets it has and create new value for itself and it's customers.
