WORLD MARKET

Banking across the globe has been going through a major transformation over the last few years, & this
evolution looks set to continue well into 2021 & indeed beyond. The financial institution of today is
more oriented towards the customer than ever before & as such a larger proportion of its resources is
being apportioned to making the customer experience as smooth as possible.

Indeed, Deloitte’s 2021 Banking Outlook supports such a position, with the issue of Customer Centricity
being given top billing among the themes & challenges banks will need to address this year in order to
generate long term growth.

According to the report, such an objective will require innovation, managing talent differently& pursuing
key partnerships within a broader ecosystem to manufacture & deliver solutions for customers.

Additionally, the report highlights other major themes for banks to address this year:

Technology Management, whereby new solutions from multiple vendors need to be integrated
effectively & with minimal internal disruption.

Remaining the workforce, whereby banks must consider charging the composition of skills
within their workforces, given the increasing requirements for automation & the need for
greater diversity.

To successfully achieve many of these challenges, it is surprise that technology will play a pivotal

role.

Block chain is expected to continue making significant inroads into the banking industry. Block chain
solutions for payments, with companies such as IBM (International Business Machines) assisting banks
to develop platforms based on distributed –ledger technology to help transfer value globally.

lOMoARcPSD|24988749

As such, existing wire transfer & payments services such as SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank
Financial Telecommunication) are experience pressures as solutions to send fiat currencies instantly & at
zero cost come to fulfillment.

Last year also show a range of views being put forward by banking leaders on crypto currencies- the
block chain based digital currencies are growing rapidly in terms of investor interest.

As the price of bit coin continued to up during the year. Such a move is clearly a boon for the of digital
currency markets& Goldman’s increasing support for this new asset class could set a model for other
banks to follow this year.

A whole host of additional technologies are bound to feature heavily within the banking industry in
2018,including the likely shift in preference to cloud based storage over private data centres, the ongoing
normalization of mobile banking through further security strengthening & improved customer
convenience.

As such banking in 2021 is likely to be characterised by innovation &convenience, which ultimately


puts the customer front &center. As technologies continue to mature, therefore, this year looks set to be
an exciting period for global banking.

transfer, payment to other personal account, transfer to credit cash account, recharge mobile phones
among others. Comparing demographic variables of the internet banking users to the non-internet

users with respect to age group & the education level of the respondents.
