These days, businesses in the financial industry are facing a number of challenges. One of these is the generally negative market view of risk taking, which is influencing everything. But there are other challenges, such as the new regulatory requirements, which are changing business conditions and necessitating further investment in resources and technology. Furthermore, an increase in capital requirements is putting additional pressure on banks, and the impact of new technology and more competition is leading to narrower margins.

As a result, the market is becoming more fragmented and unstable as new roles and new channels for communication and trading are introduced. Financial organizations must now focus on innovation; offering new services, a better customer experience, mobile solutions, and superior enterprise decision support systems, while constantly reducing costs. In other words, these financial organizations need to review their business and operating models.

We believe that there are two areas of particular importance when addressing these challenges:

• Defining strategies for addressing and complying with new financial regulations
• Repositioning the organization to be more innovative, agile and flexible

 

At Capcore, we have created a focus area for each of these challenges:

• Financial regulations
• Business architecture
