Why should financial institutions adopt cloud solutions?
Financial institutions are increasingly pressured to put new services online, especially following the pandemic. Cloud solutions help break down data siloes, enabling a more comprehensive view of customers and allowing for more accurate insights. Additionally, the flexibility and scalability of cloud services can accommodate unpredictable data volumes, making them an attractive option.
What are the benefits of cloud adoption in financial services?
Financial institutions see several benefits in cloud adoption, including cost savings from reduced hardware expenses and a shift to service-based pricing. The cloud also enhances flexibility and scalability, which is crucial for managing large volumes of transactional data. Furthermore, perceptions of security risks have improved, as cloud providers often have more robust security measures than individual institutions.
What challenges remain for cloud adoption in financial services?
Despite the diminishing barriers to cloud adoption, financial institutions still encounter regulatory issues and must navigate complex contracting considerations. Additionally, successful cloud migration requires a cultural shift within organizations, treating it as a business project with executive sponsorship, rather than just an IT initiative.
