ServiceNow Financial Services Operations and Customer Experience in Financial Services
Introduction: Finance Service Management
In movies, a man walks into a bank and siphons off the entire money and walks out, using a fake identity. We all wonder if this can be pulled off at these times when cyber security is getting much more difficult to breach. Thanks to the development that FinTech has witnessed in the last few decades, we now have face-reading biometric verification that makes banking more secure.
Be it a financial transaction or other financial planning, banking is already at our fingertips. A large amount of data lies with the institution that is used by Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create services in the form of apps to render efficient personalized services. And experts suggest that in the next decade, there will be many changes creating major disruptive technology. The leap in big data, advanced analytics, and artificial intelligence bring in the big disruptive technology. Expectations for a seamless and personalized digital experience are increasing, and customers are spoilt for choice these days.
Challenges Faced by the Banking Sector
According to IDC
The challenges that financial institutions face because of which customer experience in financial services are hindered:
- A gap in the process across channels that are paper-based or via emails that get lost in departments
- Processes that include different departments and are not connected, leading to communication getting lost
- Legacy systems that are siloed and are difficult to connect workflows, queries, and data
For any banking institution to function properly, there should not be any glitches in the operational workflow. The retail banking system faces siloed legacy applications, gaps in processes, and disconnected customer and employee experiences. Operational excellence is the key to resolving these issues through which a modern and efficient delivery process can be achieved throughout the customer's lifecycle.
