View Brand PublisherHow Tata Tele Business Services is reimagining digital transformation for the BFSI sector
Digitalisation in the Indian financial sector began in the early 90s when Automated Teller Machines (ATM) and Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT) were introduced. Soon after, internet banking was permitted, followed by the NEFT, IMPS, RTGS, etc. In the last few years, the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has launched several successful initiatives like UPI, IMPS and Bharat Bill Pay with the intention to make India's banking and financial services sector truly digital.
Growing internet and mobile penetration and availability of low-cost data plans also gave a boost to the adoption of digital technologies. So when the pandemic struck, the country was already on a digital-first path.
Building innovative models for banking
Business growth in the BFSI sector is driven by superior digital customer experience - where they have complete access to finance from any device, anytime and anywhere - ability to prioritise customer data security and privacy, set up automatic payments, make deposits any time, get automated financial advice, personalised real-time assistance, etc.
According to a recent report by Allied Market Research, the global digital transformation in the BFSI industry generated $52.44 billion in 2019 and is estimated to garner $164.08 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 15.4 percent from 2020 to 2027. So, ‘digital transformation’ is no longer a buzzword for the BFSI sector, but a criticality for business growth.
Making significant progress in this direction are Indian fintechs and digital payments companies that offer a wide range of integrated and user-friendly solutions by leveraging advanced technologies and deploying innovative business models.
While the crisis continues, what is key is change. “Banks and financial services companies now need to move away from branch banking and focus on developing and adopting cutting-edge technologies like AI and ML, Robotic Process Automation (RPA), cybersecurity and cloud technologies to establish a digital infrastructure across all their channels,” says Vishal Rally, SVP & Head - Product, Marketing and Commercial, Tata Teleservices.
He adds, “They need to redefine customer experiences, take a mobile-first view, develop a personalised strategy and partner with the right technology platforms.”
