About

Our wholesale banking expertise

The global wholesale banking market and its surrounding macro-economic environment are rapidly evolving. In a world facing significant change factors, including evolving regulatory intrusion, interest rate volatility, economic and political uncertainty and associated instability on capital and debt markets, players in the wholesale banking space must address a number of business threats – and seize opportunities – in order to remain competitive. Pressure is rising to offer differentiated and holistic services to customers, as wholesale banking participants fight for customer primacy. Simultaneously, they must respond to customer demands for reduced costs while navigating an increasingly crowded wholesale banking marketplace, due to the emergence of Fintech players.

Technology is also playing a prominent role in industry disruption, as wholesale banks and service providers seek to optimise their technology processes, consolidate platforms and offer technology-driven experiences that will enable them to remain competitive. Meanwhile, some major emerging trends, from artificial intelligence to distributed ledger technology and digital currencies, are posing even more fundamental potential to revolutionise wholesale banking processes and business models.
