2 OVERVIEW Banking is about the future. Banks build lives, advance society and help countries thrive. Banks sit at the core of economic development, and easy access to efficient banking services is essential for those contributing to a rich and diverse economy. The financial crisis of 2008 confronted the regulators with some serious challenges. Banks had become too big to fail, moral hazard drove the system to breaking point, ultimately leading to capital and liquidity crises, the likes of which had never been seen before. Eventually, coordinated and significant global action was taken to restore stability. And when the dust settled, regulators and central banks, realised greater levels of diversity and competition were required to help reinvent banking models to challenge the traditional models. Consumers were also looking for something that was quicker, simpler, and easier to use, having grown accustomed to One-Click shopping experiences, being able to communicate simply with their friends anywhere in the world and access any kind of information they needed. Banking needed to change. The emergence of cloud technology, the relative ease with which technology of all types could be deployed, the availability of secure and globally consistent networks combined with a rich catalogue of modules, provides a potent base for the development of FinTech as a movement. But that s just one part of the story. The regulators, realising that banking systems had to change for the better, the sector needed to be more diverse, and more competition was required, encouraged start-ups to be disruptive and challenge the status quo. To help, central banks, governments, regulators and some traditional banks, gave these start-ups a platform, a vehicle and a home in the form of the FinTech accelerator. These accelerators incubated ideas to disrupt traditional business models. They were provided with access to resources, a network of advisers, capital and space was made for them within the ecosystem to advance into new territories. Fast forward to 2017, and every part of the sector is being challenged, the scale of that challenge more evident than ever when in April of this year, London played host to the Innovate Finance - Global Summit. An event bringing together some 2,000 attendees, 25 global regulators, and 400-member attendees, it was a measure of how important FinTech had become since the crisis. But technology can offer more. The emergence of digital as a concept, where there is a seamless interaction with the customer takes the experience to a level where the experience itself is invisible. Building on the advances of the FinTech movement, and leveraging the power of big data and analytics, Digital Banking is emerging a distinct strand to satisfy the customer, offering a vastly superior customer experience. And the benefits are not just confined to the customer, as the banks can elevate brand loyalty, reduce costs, ultimately driving the top and bottom lines. In parallel, in the same way that FinTech offered the opportunity to disrupt, RegTech started to emerge as an organised body of thinking looking at the challenge of standardising regulatory frameworks, again leveraging advances in technology to essentially automate regulation. At its core, this course provides a broad introduction to FinTech, Digital Banking, RegTech and Big Data. Tailored for senior bank managers, business managers and project managers, the materials looks at the topic from a high level, drilling down as required, providing a package of thinking which is relevant and current. Who Should Attend!
