Fenergo CEO Marc Murphy said: “Our report findings tell us that the lack of technology investment and maturing infrastructures are creating barriers to digital transformation.

“By connecting internal and external systems and technologies through specially designed APIs financial institutions can build powerful customer ecosystems without the need for a complete rip and replace.

“Underpinned with a centralised client data strategy, financial institutions can achieve a single client view across all jurisdictions, business units and products.”

The Fenergo report is based on a survey of 250 C-suite executives of banks of varying sizes across the world.

The findings are the final instalment of a three-part CLM trends report.
