A lecture by Mr Rahul Malhotra, Business Consulting Sr. Director, Banking & Capital Markets Practice, NTT Data Services was delivered on ‘Future of Banking Post COVID-19 World’. While addressing Mr Rahul said that the whole banking ecosystem is disturbed. Most banks have addressed the immediate challenges presented by the Covid 19 crisis by protecting staff, moving to remote working and providing much needed services to customers. Unlike financial crisis of 2008-2009 when banks were portrayed villains, the current pandemic provides an opportunity for banks to be active and positive participants, helping both customers and business weather the economic storm. Doing it well with empathy, personalization, but also appropriate risk management could create stronger, enduring relationships that will be a foundation for future success. Covid 19 has already dramatically accelerated the need for incumbent firms to digitize. Post pandemic, financial services firms will learn valuable lessons about what their customer wants, their own business resilience and how to compete in a digital first market. The change in the way people bank, the future of work, the use of modern technology and the value of brands will all depend greatly on the time it takes to settle on a new normal. Banking industry is treading uncharted coronavirus waters decline in branch visits, jump in virtual interactions, digital payments on the rise. World Health Organization recommends contact less payments versus cash, as a way to limit the spread of the virus that may linger on paper currency.
