As customer interactions become digital by necessity and as mandatory remote working become “normal,” public cloud adoption and migration has moved to the top of banking institutions’ C-suite agendas. In a world where business disruption is the rule and not the exception, banks need IT environments that are optimized to support change. Public cloud offers a range of cost, agility and efficiency benefits, but it’s not just about technology. Cloud can help banks with both the business and IT transformations needed to lean into the shift to a digital economy and respond to disruptive shocks such as the global coronavirus pandemic. But security, regulatory, and organizational challenges must be overcome to ensure strict compliance frameworks are met.
