Digital banking is a multi-year journey that requires transforming how banks interact with customers in the digital age. It involves changes across five key areas: leadership, customer experience, information, operational model, and workforce. The transformation is driven by changes in customer behavior, technology innovation, and an increasingly competitive landscape that now includes technology companies and startups in addition to other banks. To succeed, banks must start with improving the customer experience and leverage new technologies to develop a deeper understanding of customers.
Digital Banking Strategy Roadmap - 3.24.15Calvin Turner
The Digital delivery of banking products and services is already a reality.
Like it or not, your customers will compare their digital banking experience to shopping on Amazon, iTunes, eBay, Southwest Air, etc., and to their digital experiences with large banks that already have robust digital banking offerings.
Traditional banks can’t just push out mobile apps and capabilities to customers and call it a digital banking strategy. Customers expect a seamless integration of the entire online banking experience from initiation to fulfillment. If they are forced to drop off somewhere along the digital experience to print documents, call a representative, and/or visit a branch, you have lost the customer.

The Journey to Digital Transformation with Touch BankBackbase
The presentation of Andrei Kozliar, CEO of Touch Bank. In this webinar, Jouk Pleiter, CEO of Backbase, talks to two of the most innovative banks in Europe – Touch Bank and CheBanca!
Digital transformation is about fundamentally changing how banks attract, interact with and satisfy consumers, and it affects all levels of your organisation. Antonio and Andrei will share real-life examples of digital transformation in our new webinar, which will look at:
what was needed to start their digital transformation journeys
the key elements for success.
Antonio Fratta Pasini is Head of CRM and Omni-channel for CheBanca!, the retail bank of Mediobanca Group, the third largest financial services group in Italy. CheBanca! has always been at the forefront of innovation, from flagship futuristic branches to award-winning banking apps such as WOW!

Building the 10x better bank, by @joukpleiter & @jelmerdejong
Slides of the November 11, 2015 webinar 'Omni-channel banking & the digital transformation roadmap'.
In this webinar, Jouk Pleiter and Jelmer de Jong of Backbase will talk about building the 10-times-better bank.
The financial services market is going through many changes. New challengers have appeared and are looking for a slice of the market. In addition, customers are more demanding and more informed, expecting convenience and simplicity when it comes to financial services, particularly online and via mobile devices. People love digital services such as Netflix, Amazon, and Uber because they’re easy to use and deliver great customer experiences. They deliver 10 times more convenience and better customer experiences than the status quo, and are therefore winning the market. It’s only a matter of time before the 10-times-better bank is founded, a thought that's on the radar of every banker.
In this webinar, we outline the journey of creating the 10-times-better bank, providing a detailed analysis of how banks can begin their digital journey, with a strong focus on five main points:
1) new competitors in banking: the disrupters
2) customer experience: the key ingredients
3) omni-channel and the changing channel mix
4) mobile's impact on online sales and share of wallet
5) regaining control in the era of digitization

Today's customers are fundamentally different from customers of past years as they are harder to acquire, retain, and delight because of the explosion in digital technologies consumers use day to day. New digital experiences are forcing banks to play catch-up and match the innovative and engaging interactions and products — such as mobile payments — that non-banks are offering to those same customers. This IDC research, sponsored by TCS Digital Software & Solutions Group, revealed three key themes for digital transformation in the banking industry.

World Retail Banking Report 2015 from Capgemini and EfmaCapgemini
The 12th annual World Retail Banking Report by Capgemini and Efma finds the bank-customer relationship is weakening. Stagnating global customer experience levels combined with an alarming increase in customers willing to leave their banks has increased the chance of customers using non-bank competitors such as brand-name retailers, FinTech firms, crowd-funding websites, peer-to-peer lenders, Internet/mobile service providers, and Apple NFC-based payment systems. The report findings underscore the need for retail banks to make investments to improve customer experience, especially in middle and back offices which have historically been ignored and are essential to providing engaging digital services through faster processing times and reduction in errors.
«Branch, Internet, Mobile, Digital» is a study that aims to synthesize and connect some of the most innovative actions that Banks, Fintechs and other actors are undertaking to develop a new model for the financial services.

Microservices represent the latest response to the challenge of building dynamic, scalable, and high-performance services and are already widely used in high-volume, mission critical applications, but as with any emerging concept the term “Microservices” is surrounded by a considerable amount of hype, and a lot of confusion. A growing number of organizations are discovering that while the promised benefits of microservices can be realized, it takes a considerable amount of planning and effort to effectively embrace the approach.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
