- Emergence of cybercurrencies, blockchain, non-traditional competitors, and value chains
- Acceleration and growing market share of FinTech and other technology providers
- Constant onslaught of cyberthreats and attacks on profitability and performance
The technological disruption taking place means that speed and accuracy in collecting and analyzing data from a broad range of devices, multi-cloud environments, and disparate systems can mean all the difference between significant profit and catastrophic loss.
of banking and payment companies will be at risk from technological disruption by 2020, while one in five insurance, wealth management, and asset management firms will be at risk
