When asked about his company's approach to IT strategy in an interview last year describe Joel Schwalbe, CIO of CNL Financial paraphrased that says a famous quote from Wayne Gretzky to "skate where the puck will be, not where it is or where it has been." With this statement, Joel plays on the face financial IT challenges in trying to keep up with technological changes in the banking and financial services industry occurs, caused by the consumerization of IT, new technologies, disruptive competitors, new threats and more. To other sports use reference. - I have to assume that Joel assertion at home for the majority of financial institutions without regard to true, where or with whom they do business
With Sibos 2014 with us this week, it makes sense that technology is a big issue at this year's agenda. The Technology Forum program covers two days and includes a variety of hot topics such as cyber security and the need to strike a balance between business-critical and innovative strikers IT, among others. The program encourages participants to "buckle in and find out what you are prepared and what you should be ready."
