The business of wealth management is gradually growing more complex. A typical player today is challenged by multiple client requirements, business locations, booking centers, operating models and platforms.
Especially in the scenario of tightened cost controls, and higher scrutiny for value, there is a need for a focus on operational excellence and business excellence in the field of wealth management – i.e. for banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI).
The key challenges of this new business environment are:
- Increased complexity of the IT environment emanating from the business environment
- Need for speed in the transactional, decision-making and product/service/channel arenas
- Increasing need of demonstration of accountability from IT
- To provide business value
- Demonstration of the compliance to the various statutory and regulatory requirements
To meet up with these challenges, organizations are making more and more efforts mainly focused on:
- Introduce new and resilient technology
- Create processes that can be used to address various areas of concerns
- Use tools to monitor, fix, report, deploy, measure, track technologies, process performance issues.
- Use partners in the “non- core competency” areas of the organization.
- Business oriented reporting
