PodChats for FutureCIO: FSI CIO challenges in 2023
The IBM Institute of Business Value report, 2023 Global Outlook for Banking and Financial Markets, paints three themes facing banks and financial markets: (1) an uncertain world calls for financial services institutions that can flex as needed; (2) healthier financial performance depends, in part, on business and technology leaders who function as coequals; and (3) the next systemic crisis could be an operational one.
On the fintech side, the bank runs at Silicon Bank Valley and Silvergate Bank and the closure of Signature Bank by regulators suggests not all is rosy for those in the fintech sector as investors put greater scrutiny on fintechs.
On the health and wellness front, the longevity of the pandemic in modern times may have sparked a renewed emphasis on personal well-being, and just as important, the willingness of individuals to use digital technologies to enable this newfound interest.
AGBA describes itself as a "one-of-a-kind wealth and health platform" whose ambition is to help people enjoy wealth and health with the ease they deserve.
