The industry situation
After the disruption of Covid, the financial services industry is facing fundamental challenges such as the rising expectations of customers, now well used to seamless digital experiences in all parts of their lives, and the increasing impact of technology on an industry that is facing ever-stricter FCA compliance regulations.
Implications and challenges
Over the years, the financial services industry earned itself a reputation for being slow to adopt new technology. The industry has been so heavily governed by strict regulations on everything from the selling of products to the storage and use of customer data, that it used to be a case of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. This means many businesses are reliant on outdated systems which don’t allow them to meet the growing needs of their customers or the new requirement for hybrid work.
The solution
Microsoft Teams provides a holistic and unified set of productivity, collaboration and real-time communication capabilities. This can make your financial services business more productive and efficient. Better still, it can help deliver a more consistent experience for customers too. And, unlike many of the other big collaboration platforms, Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams provide strong enterprise security for the financial services industry. They will help you protect sensitive information and meet regulatory compliance obligations.
