Information Technology
More than most other industries, financial institutions rely on gathering, processing, analyzing, and providing information in order to meet the needs of their customers who expect to receive the same high-quality interactions they have with technology companies and other competitors who are now targeting financial institutions.
Ensuring the bank is able to react quickly to market needs, stay at the forefront of trending newer ideas like mobile banking, social media marketing, data analytics and payments, respond to the changing regulatory landscape while managing increasing IT expense, requires management to regularly perform a comprehensive review of operating infrastructures, with a particular focus on core applications, user requirements, system architecture, vendor management, and the relative effectiveness of applications used.
