I declare that I have read and fully understood the Privacy Notice and I hereby express my consent to the processing of my personal data by Reply SpA for marketing purposes, in particular to receive promotional and commercial communications or information regarding company events or webinars, using automated contact means (e.g. SMS, MMS, fax, email and web applications) or traditional methods (e.g. phone calls and paper mail).

The current pandemic has fuelled digital transformations and cloud adoption across numerous organisations and sectors. Whilst cloud adoption was well underway in Financial Services before the crisis, adoption progress and maturity seems to vary widely by size and type of organisation. Reply has embarked on a 'Cloud in Financial Services' initiative, through webinars, thought leadership pieces and a flagship event to shed light on the benefits and challenges that underpin cloud adoption. Aimed at C-Suite and Board Members, it focuses on strategic considerations covering all aspects of Cloud adoption in Financial Services.


THE BENEFITS OF CLOUD ADOPTION

The Cloud unleashes new opportunities for Financial Institutions by providing platform solutions for:


Smarter Decision Making

  • Enterprise-level data storage and access to real-time insights across Finance, Risk, Regulation and Customer support
  • Streamlined operating models with improved and automated processes
  • Seamless customer engagement

Fueling Innovation

  • Build new capabilities and services
  • Access to latest Products-as-a-Service
    • Unlock new revenue streams and operational based costing
  • Advanced agility and responsiveness to anticipate future needs

Enhanced data security

  • Uncompromised data access
  • Latest cyber security protocols
  • Enhanced infrastructure supporting regulatory compliance and protecting consumers’ personal and financial data

Most Financial Services tend to adopt a multi-cloud approach, a mix of public, private and hybrid, based on their organisational needs, maturity, and cloud adoption stage.


HOW REPLY SUPPORTS ITS CLIENTS

  • Creating the business case for migrating to the cloud
  • Clarifying architectural components and governance strategy of a multi-cloud approach
  • Implementing Cloud security, and mapping out the shared responsibility between cloud providers and clients
  • Meeting regulatory requirements across jurisdictions
  • Managing organisational change

Jules Verne authored the novel Around the World in Eighty Days, Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours in its native French, which was published serially in 1872. It would presumptuous of me to rescript the story of the unflappable Phileas Fogg’s trip around the world, but allow me to take you on a ten-legged journey to explore how the Cloud can enable productivity, innovation, and scalability in financial services.

The Cloud and the future of finance

A couple of weeks ago I had the privilege of co-authoring a short article on the adoption of the Cloud in Financial Services with Professor Nelson Phillips of the Imperial College Business School. We conducted several interviews with senior leaders in financial services about their experiences of moving to the Cloud. It turned out to be such a captivating journey that Nelson and I are planning to continue along this path and turn it into a much more comprehensive piece of research.
