A new roundtable discussion with IBM examines how BigTech has set customer expectations, and how financial institutions can meet them.

Order a car, meal or movie on your phone and you’ll know the height of people’s digital expectations.

But although many financial institutions ignore it, the fact remains: the same expectations apply to banks and credit unions. Customer experience needs to come first. So financial institutions are at a crossroads, with the next few years determining which will truly adapt to the BigTech reality.

In this new roundtable with IBM and Aberdeen, the panelists break down what BigTech does differently – and how its all made possible with a one platform approach:

Fast, frictionless service: The customer gets in, gets what they need, and gets out. All in an instant.

Daily living: Like Big Tech, financial institutions need to become a tool integrated into daily lives.

Cost-effective: Digitized processes, reduced overhead and quick deployment need to be part of your DNA.
