Banks want to re-invigorate their enterprise architecture i.e. SOA and middleware, process improvement increasingly an alternative to core system replacement
1 – But is time running out for Core system replacement?

2 - Increasingly Tier 1 banks are doing architecture transformation projects
What does that mean?– Analysing processes and data to seek to reengineer the bank, with the construction
of some form of Enterprise Architecture Framework – Single Customer Information File and a number of other horizontal layers to cut
through the silos including a thick sub-ledger that becomes the main repository for all MIS and regulatory reporting, middleware (or Enterprise Services Bus, in SOA parlance), and a single customer service and delivery layer to replace piecemeal front-ends

3 – 2008 the year for payments…SEPA = Opportunities
Fast movers will be best positioned to take advantage of the more open market
Beyond cash and liquidity management, institutions should also investigate supporting corporations with financing services for the corporate supply chain
Banks should act quickly in implementing new services to stay ahead of the competition. Key focus areas should be:
– Cash and liquidity management – Implementation of credit transfers
and direct debits on systems like Step2 and Target2
– SWIFTNet funds, cash reporting, etc

3 – Payments in Europe looking ahead
Banks and EC look to phase cash out?What business model for mobile payments?
– Rise of prepaid cards in Europe – cash alternative with same anonymity
– EPC working on standards – use the SEPA infrastructure– M-payments and m-banking as a differentiator – enters Spain
Is this what the customer wants?E-invoicing

3- E-invoicing through SEPA – disruptive event
EC reports that an EU-wide electronic invoicing system could save Euros 243 BnTo date E-invoicing penetration and adoption in Europe is limited and fragmented VAT, accounting, payment, authentication, company transparency and data retention rules and obligations have limited European harmonisationProjects have been focused on one type of industry, e.g Denmark Public SectorE-invoicing is missing link for SEPA, provide a real opportunity towards integrated supply chain finance

Who Cares About Mobile Payments?
TechnologyVendors
Need to capitalize on the next generation of mobile payments solutions. • Horizontal and financial services technology vendors
WHO WHY
Banks & CCCompanies
must leverage existing value chains, rather than build new competitive solutions. They must also evaluate ways to let mobile telecoms participate in collaborative value generation.
MobileOperators
must open up revenue streams, especially from monthly m-payment subscription charges or per transaction fees. Operators must also take full advantage of the positive side effect of embedding the mobile phone even deeper into the life of the subscribers
HandsetSuppliers
must consider active integration of mobile payment capabilities into product road maps. making standardization and compatibility across operators and platforms critical to preserve user attractiveness and scale benefits."
Merchantsmust use cashless payments to drive further cost decreases that accrue from giving up cash, and to offset POS technology upgradecosts."
Customersit needs to be demonstrated to mobile phone users that mobile payment is much more attractive than other more familiar paymentschemes.

7 – Wealth Management - Competition heats up as customers become more sophisticated
The European wealth management industry enjoyed a record year in 2007 and the 2008 is very positive.Several market participants are jumping in this sector to grasp some market share. Clear product value proposition and targeting based on investment behavior and reach will be the key success factor in a fierce competitive environmentInvestment vehicles:
– The old world of Bonds and Property investments is over and a new and more volatile investment opportunity have made a a major inroad but with a different flavor for:
• Entrepreneurs• Generation X and Y• Women
Multi Asset Class Trading Systems will be a major focusReach - face to face coupled by electronic interaction and access is a must to have:
– Next-Generation of Communications Platforms with a major focus on mobile access to data and services
– Sophisticated CRM functionality

8 – Regulation, compliance, risk and fraud management & AML - again in the spotlight
Compliance: the most disruptive regulation affecting financial industry have already been implemented but it will remain one of the main topic in the business and technology agenda for:
– Running the business: • Financial impacts from sub-prime fallout fuelled by its spill over in Europe as well as the
recent exceptional fraud cases, will drive more rigid governance frameworks and Financial Industry will forced to focus to close internal gaps and improve weakness areas as well as to prepare for the next prescriptive rules Hedge funds? Tight oversight of derivatives?
The current risk adverse environment could be a strong market opportunity to:– Growth the business:
• Credit markets will tighten further, banks with the most sophisticated risk management and capital market firms with enhanced tool for portfolio optimization to improve the risk/return profile of the portfolio could achieve solid increase in market share
• Capital market – To ride the growth of alternative investment product advanced risk management systems could be a clear differentiator to cope with the challenge of developing pricing models across multiple asset classes and increasingly more complex derivative transactions
Security & Fraud: security breaches continues to grow and it will increase exponentially as firms embrace mobility and the the web 2.0” wave. For running the business, firms will have to get serious about their strategy - especially as fraudsters are even breaching two-factor authentication schemes -and investments , as new security and fraud management tools are mandatory to improve data protection and to safeguard against identity theft

Hurdles to Overcome
– Banks have had a very good run – until latest credit crunch– Why spend money innovating when so much profit already?– Can Banks create an Innovative culture? Is it changing course
or changing minds?– Are banks able to create the necessary environment where
business and IT both communicate and speak the same language? CULTURAL CHALLENGES!
– What are the risks to competitiveness and customer perceptions if a bank fails to grasp the innovation nettle? EMPLOYEE CHALLENGES!

“People Attraction NOT Resource Allocation”

Business Drivers: Globalizaton
Globalization is a double-edged sword – those well-positioned are eager to expand, the rest are fearful of more foreign competition. Institutions must prepare for
– a more global banking environment. This is good news for those that already have had success with a multi-national strategy.
– a strong local or regional footprint. This will allow firms to generate consistent revenues.
– a strong technology infrastructure and disciplined approach to acquisition. This allows them to reap the benefits of inorganic growth.
All of these attributes have posed challenges for banks in the past. The relatively weak dollar makes US institutions attractive take-over targets. Financial Insights predicts that Western European banks will be well-positioned in a more global economy with the investments in their back-office systems, particularly in their payment processing in response to both Basel II and SEPA.

Business Drivers: Customer Centricity
In the race to increase inexpensive core deposits and increase revenues, institutions are doing what they always do – focusing on their customers (again).
– While it is less expensive to serve and retain your existing customers than to attract new ones, banks are easily distracted when times are good and they lose sight of this truism.
This time, customer centricity initiatives are less ethereal than when CRM was the hot topic in the late 1990s.
– Now, customer centricity has the advantage of building upon strong data warehouses that have been developed in the intervening years, with mature analytic tools.
What banks are struggling with now is realizing a true enterprise-wide approach to their customers.
– This remains elusive for most large institutions.
