How financial services organizations can use no-code to keep up with the pace of disruptive fintech start-ups
Though the financial sector can be broken down into various sub-sectors — banking, insurance, accounting, trading, real estate, and so on — many of these sub-sectors share common challenges. Some challenges are just as pertinent across all financial sector organizations, such as tackling cybercrime, modernizing legacy systems, and changing regulations.
For those financial services organizations that are able — and willing — to rise to these challenges by using technology such as no-code, the future looks a whole lot more optimistic.
Sector leaders are using automation for a wide range of tasks, from resetting employee passwords to claims processing, and the cost savings are significant. The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, for example, deployed automation at scale to see cost savings of 30% annually.
AI is being used to help financial services organizations gain a better understanding of their customers’ needs, meaning they can get better at providing that all-important personalized service.
We’re increasingly moving towards a cash-free world and leading financial services organizations are seeing this as an opportunity to drive innovation in payment methods. As Forbes states, “Consumers want payments to be instant, invisible, and free (IIF).”
Deloitte states that cloud computing could be a “...potential game-changer for how financial services organizations will operate in the future.” Sector leaders are already seeing the benefits of cloud computing in areas such as revenue generation, customer insights, time-to-market, and risk management.
From facial recognition to signature analysis, biometrics are increasingly being used by leading financial services organizations to help reduce fraudulent activity and improve the customer experience.
They say data is the new oil and fintech start ups are providing free services in exchange for consumers’ data. This can take the form of free expense management applications, or commission-free trading platforms.
Shortening the development cycle means having the ability to keep up with ever-changing regulations. And being the first to implement an innovative new service sets leading organizations apart from the competition.
