- Cloud native core banking as a new chapter in banking transformation.
Cloud native core banking as a new chapter in banking transformation.
For banks, core system modernization is no longer a matter of “if”.
In order to maintain loyalty of modern customers, already used to cutting edge solutions in daily lives, as well as to leverage emerging technology such as generative AI, banks must consider how and in what manner their cores are to be modernized.
Proper modernization is however an immensely complex and costly process. This applies to various facets of the process: from prudent selection of technology, alignment of multiple business needs, the ever-increasing regulatory strain and growing expectations of the end user. We believe that only with a strategic partnership with IT vendors and Cloud providers can banks achieve success and competitive advantage -- not just in relation to other players on the market, but also innovative Fintechs, who lack the institutional overhead of traditional banks.
