Infiniti’s Market Intelligence Helps a Leading Client in the Financial Industry Address their Operational Concerns

Dec 22, 2017

According to the organization of Economic Co-operation and Development, financial services comprise around 20-30% of the total service market revenue.

The global financing industry is witnessing unprecedented regulatory changes and demands, and in the midst of the recent crisis, prominent banks are creating opportunities to improve growth and profitability. The goal of these banks is to manage risk, ensure compliance, and improve the operating models. With the recent financial crisis, the economy is still struggling to keep up with the unconventional monetary policies and make the financial system more resilient. While there is a significant demand for financial services across all income levels, several factors are hampering the growth of the financial industry. These factors include:

  • Disruptions in the global economy: With the recent Brexit issue, prominent financial institutions across the globe have been affected. Also, recent economic disruptions have affected the overall banking stability with consumers focusing on increasing their investments and reducing the spending.
  • Cybersecurity: With the rising incidence of security threats such as phishing, ransomware, and DDoS attacks, regulators are planning to enhance the level of scrutiny for proving authentication and real-time monitoring capabilities. Also, with the increasing customer expectations, leading firms in the financial industry are facing relentless pressures to keep up their operations with the changing technological landscape.

To address concerns related to the growth of the financial industry, leading service providers are implementing market intelligence as a part of their business strategy. Market intelligence provides information related to the current market scenario to further analyze the benefit of the business. An effective market intelligence solution is vital for the businesses to gather, analyze, record, and interpret information about the company’s competitors and the customers.
