Lets Skip……

Lets see from a banking perspective and if banks are ready?

Are you Banks ready for this revolution?

Once again my question….

Are you Banks ready for this revolution?

People are demanding for digital inclusion.

Government is making considerable investment in Digital Infrastructure.

Competition is coming very fast.

How could you be successful on becoming a digital Bank? Our thoughts

Divide you core bank traditional product offering and the Digital Banking.

Spin your IT teams as a separate company for Digital Banking

Let the spin off company build an organisation with Technology based culture and not a traditional banking based culture

Move away risk evaluation from the new spin off’s – Credit Risks are different from Technology risk evaluation.

Change your culture and the way you work.…. Look at Millennia's and gather the way they want you to work Change from Printing Slips for every transaction mentality

think of sending all instructions digitally Embrace knowledge and invest into intellectual capital Move away from traditional board/meeting room decision

making to coffee shop decision making

Our humble request to Banks

Stop asking for collateral.. collateral… collateral… have better analytics.

Setup a fund to Invest in startups with great idea’s

Lend to intellectual workforce on creating new startups

Thank You
