«We are talking about a lot of technology right now, considering what is being done in terms of innovation, but ultimately it is solutions that solve problems. They are defined as a means and an instrument for the creation of new products and services as well as new ideas. These solutions should originate from the current reality of businesses. There is absolutely no point in adopting a technology without a concrete need behind it. The idea is to find new answers to business’s problems through technological solutions. Historically, technology has always been an important component in the field of finance. We can go back to the beginning of the 18th century when there was the optical telegraph that was used for all activities related to stock market trading. Personally, I think technology is inherent in financial services. The big financial behemoths are working on technologies that are outdated. They are therefore concerned with the “Legacy” of IT systems that are no longer at the cutting edge, and often need help to better understand the new technologies that are block chain, Big data…, and that go in the direction of Open banking.
