Evolving customer preferences, demand for digital and omnichannel experiences, and competition from FinTechs are impacting banks’ digital strategies and transformation initiatives. COVID-19 has significantly accelerated enterprises’ digitalization plans and adoption of new technologies for processes such as digital customer onboarding, paperless underwriting, real-time payments, and real-time cash management. In Europe, regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and open banking have driven banking organizations’ investments in application modernization initiatives. Additionally, the rise of challenger banks is compelling banks to become nimble and focus on customer experience enhancement.

One of the biggest challenges the banking industry continues to face is the shortage of technology skills in the market. IT service providers are investing heavily in building banking industry-specific solutions and an engineering talent pool to respond to the evolving demand themes. Enterprises are seeking support from these providers to shift to a platform-based operating model, cloud-first approach, data value realization leveraging AI/ML, and APIfication.
