Fintech has proven it can find quicker and easier ways to do day-to-day banking. It’s not yet proven it can deliver that innovation to end users through incumbent owned structures and processes. On the contrary, early use cases suggest culture clash is inevitable and integration painful; with the very real risk of a PPI-scale pay out in the event of a data breach or service outage.
Yet with time-to-market pressures, and the encroach of various non-bank giants (Google, Facebook, Apple, Amazon etc), few incumbents can risk going-it-alone.
Join Global Data analysts, Steve Walker and Ruby Ghunia, as they discuss how to overcome the so-called ‘fintech problem’.
They introduce criteria for assessing would-be partners based on disruptive potential, strategic fit and evolutionary stage. Discuss how robust tech due diligence should determine the optimal level and type of integration on a case-by-case basis. They conclude by identifying long-term strategic changes required to succeed in the age of partnership illustrated by new case studies.
Whether you are an IT vendor, Fintech provider or incumbent bank/insurer, this session will help you understand partnership-led transformation means for you and your business.
