Last year, I got into a long debate about investments in branches versus alternative channels, so I thought I would get into that debate again a year on … but with a twist.
Today, if a bank does not have IP networking as the core wiring for the organisation, then they will miss a trick because of inconsistencies and gaps between branches, advisors, brokers, dealers, traders and all.
Taking that as a given therefore – that IP networks are wired across the bank as a consistent foundation – the next question would be where to make the next significant investment?
So here’s a challenge to test this.
