Perspective- Multi Channel Banking: A Five Point Strategy Infosys Finacle
The last two decades have witnessed a paradigm shift in the way people bank. While the shift from branches to ATM based cash withdrawals and from there on to internet banking was slow, it has been a different story in the case of mobile banking. The growth in adoption of mobile banking over the last three years has been tremendous. Many banks have rolled out internet banking, mobile banking, call centers, ATM based transactions and video banking. But, have banks moved from multiple channels to true multi-channel banking with seamless cross channel experiences?
Here we explore a five point strategy that would empower banks and financial institutions to define a robust multi-channel offering.

Private Banking: Redefining the Game Through MobilityCognizant
Today's sophisticated mobile devices have made it possible for bank customers to perform most banking transactions remotely - without having to visit their bank's branch offices. However, the nature of the private banking business and the profile of the clientele make this challenging. An all-inclusive, cross-platform app for private banking can provide more visibility into customers' and banks' needs and potentially become the primary channel for private banking, rather than merely an add-on.

يتعرض قطاع الخدمات المالية للتهديد المستمر بالاحتيال ، والذي من غير المرجح أن ينتهي. خلال جائحة COVID-19 وحدها، شهد هذا القطاع زيادة بنسبة 24٪ في الاحتيال. تتعرض المؤسسات المالية لضغوط لإيجاد الحل الصحيح للحد من هذا التهديد. يمثل الصراع تحديًا حيث يتعين على المؤسسات المالية الموازنة بين الاستخدام الحقيقي لبياناتها مع البقاء متوافقين تمامًا مع القطاع التنظيمي لتجنب الغرامات الكبيرة.
بهاء عبد الحسين خبير في التكنولوجيا المالية ويشارك تجاربه مع جمهوره من خلال مدوناته. في هذا المقال يناقش موضوع تطور البيانات في قطاع التكنولوجيا المالية في المرحلة المعاصرة.
خلق الاقتصاد والمنافسة في القطاع المالي سياقًا عالميًا يدفع البنوك إلى إنشاء إطار بيانات جديد يتناسب مع الاحتياجات الجديدة. يجب على المؤسسات المالية تجديد آليات الإبلاغ الخاصة بها، مع الموازنة بين التكلفة والجودة والإنتاج.
ببساطة، مركزية العميل تضع العميل في مركز كل عمليه تجري داخل عملك. إنه التأكد من أن كل قرار تتخذه – من تطوير المنتج إلى التسويق إلى خدمة العملاء – يعتمد على الأفضل لعملائك. ولا يتعلق الأمر فقط بإسعادهم ؛ يتعلق الأمر بإنشاء علاقات طويلة الأمد ستحولهم إلى دعاة لعلامتك التجارية.
تعتبر تقنية الامتثال أولوية قصوى للشركات هذه الأيام. يمكن أن تتخذ تقنية الامتثال العديد من الأشكال المختلفة، ولكن في جوهرها، يتعلق الأمر كله بإنشاء نظام يسهل على شركتك الوفاء بالتزاماتها. قد يتضمن ذلك تطوير برامج تساعدك على تتبع البيانات وإدارتها، أو تنفيذ سياسات وإجراءات تضمن الامتثال لمعايير القطاع. مهما كان الشكل الذي تتخذه، فإن تقنية الامتثال هي جزء أساسي من ممارسة الأعمال التجارية في العالم الحديث.
اكثر الأسئلة التي تم طرحها مؤخراً، خاصة في ضوء الركود الاقتصادي الأخير. مع فقدان الكثير من الناس لمنازلهم ووظائفهم، فلا عجب أن يتساءل الناس لماذا لا تزال البنوك التقليدية موجودة؟
جودة البيانات هي مقياس لمدى تلبية البيانات لاحتياجات الاستخدام المقصود. يمكن أن تكون البيانات رديئة الجودة لأسباب عديدة، بما في ذلك عدم الدقة والتناقضات والازدواجية والقيم المفقودة. غالبًا ما يتم تقييم جودة البيانات باستخدام معايير محددة، مثل الدقة والاكتمال وحسن التوقيت والأهمية. يمكن أن يمثل تحسين جودة البيانات تحديًا، ولكن من الضروري للشركات التي تعتمد على البيانات اتخاذ القرارات.يمكن أن تؤدي جودة البيانات الضعيفة إلى رؤى غير دقيقة واتخاذ قرارات، مما قد يؤثر في النهاية على أرباح الشركة. هناك العديد من الطرق لتحسين جودة البيانات، بما في ذلك تقنيات التطهير والتحقق. من خلال اتخاذ خطوات لتحسين جودة البيانات، يمكن للشركات التأكد من أنها تتخذ قرارات بناءً على المعلومات الأكثر دقة وحداثة.
يتم تطوير واعتماد تقنيات جديدة بمعدل لا يصدق. تمثل الشركات المالية الناشئة تحديًا للمؤسسات المالية القائمة. و ما زاد مستوى التحدي ايضاً هو مطالب المستهلكون بمنتجات وخدمات مالية أكثر ابتكارًا ومريحة وبأسعار معقولة. تخلق هذه الظروف العاصفة المثالية بما تحتويه من فرصًا وتحديات للشركات في قطاع التكنولوجيا المالية.
تتزايد أهمية معاملات الدفع الرقمية مع تحرك النظام المالي العالمي بعيداً عن استخدام السيولة. هذا يترجم إلى فرص إضافية لمقدمي خدمات الأمن السيبراني. تستكشف المؤسسات المصرفية ومؤسسات الدفع البنى التحتية والخدمات الأمنية الأحدث والأكثر فاعلية للتعامل مع المحتالين.هناك العديد من الإجراءات الأمنية إلى جانب استخدام الشبكات الافتراضية الخاصة، وهي التقنية الأكثر شيوعاً التي يستخدمها الأفراد والمؤسسات لتقليل مخاطر الجرائم الإلكترونية وتأمين البيانات.
يرى السيد بهاء عبد الحسين ان ظهور تقنيات جديدة يغير بسرعة السوق العالمية في مجال التمويل المالي. بسبب هذه التغييرات، يتطور العملاء أيضاً وينمو القطاع المصرفي بوتيرة غير مسبوقة. ولكن لا تزال هناك أجزاء كثيرة من العالم لا يملك فيها الكثير من الناس حسابات بنكية. من خلال المزيد من الشمول المالي، يمكن أن ينمو نطاق الخدمات المصرفية أكثر. يمكن القيام بذلك من خلال تقديم خدمات بسيطة مثل حسابات التوفير والائتمان لهؤلاء الناس بغض النظر عن مستوى دخلهم.
كيف تعمل الثورة الرقمية على تحويل قطاع صناعة الخدمات المصرفية والتأمين BFSI .pdfBahaa Abdul Hussein
شهدت آسيا ثورة رقمية في الخدمات المالية والمصرفية على مدى السنوات العشر الماضية وتلحق بسرعة بهذه الثورة. ونتيجة لذلك، أصبحت الإدارة المصرفية والمالية الآن أسهل وأكثر أمانًا للناس. نتيجة لذلك، تتغير الطريقة التي تتنافس بها الشركات وتعمل في هذا السوق.
يتم تطوير واعتماد تقنيات جديدة بمعدل لا يصدق. تمثل الشركات المالية الناشئة تحديًا للمؤسسات المالية القائمة. و ما زاد مستوى التحدي ايضاً هو مطالب المستهلكون بمنتجات وخدمات مالية أكثر ابتكارًا ومريحة وبأسعار معقولة. تخلق هذه الظروف العاصفة المثالية بما تحتويه من فرصًا وتحديات للشركات في قطاع التكنولوجيا المالية.
هناك احتمالات إذا كنت تقرأ هذا، فأنت صاحب عمل أو مدير مهتم (أو يجب أن يكون) بالأمن السيبراني. في عصر الرقمنة ليست الشركات الكبيرة فقط في خطر – يمكن اختراق أي شركة، مما قد يتسبب في أضرار مالية جسيمة. إذن ماذا يمكنك أن تفعل لتقليل ضعف شركتك ؟ إليك بعض النصائح.
الاحتيال هو نوع من الجرائم ينطوي على خداع الآخرين من أجل الحصول على ميزة غير عادلة أو غير قانونية. على عكس الجرائم الأخرى، التي تنطوي عادة على القوة أو العنف، عادة ما يتم ارتكاب الاحتيال من خلال الأقوال أو الأفعال التي تحرف الحقيقة. يمكن أن يجعل هذا من الصعب الكشف والمقاضاة، حيث لا توجد في كثير من الأحيان أدلة مادية لدعم ادعاء الاحتيال.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neobanks & Financial Inclusion.pdf
1. Neobanks & Financial Inclusion
Financial inclusion, the access and use of financial services by individuals and
businesses, is a crucial aspect of promoting economic growth plus decreasing
poverty defined Bahaa Abdul Hussein. Nonetheless, conventional banking systems
have often left a vital portion of the population underserved, mainly in developing
countries and marginalized communities. In recent years, neobanks have emerged
as a promising solution to bridge the gap and enhance financial inclusion.
All About Neobanks
Neobanks, also referred to as digital banks/challenger banks, are financial
institutions that operate totally online without physical branches. Making the most of
technology and mobile applications, neobanks offer a range of financial services
such as savings accounts, payment solutions, loans, and budgeting tools. These
digital platforms have the potential to revolutionize the banking sector by offering
convenient, affordable, and accessible services to individuals previously excluded
from the formal banking system.
Neobanks have the main benefit of their ability to overcome geographical barriers. In
remote areas, old-fashioned brick-and-mortar banks are often absent or
inaccessible. Neobanks, by contrast, can reach these populations through mobile
phones, which have become increasingly prevalent even in the remotest corners of
the globe. The need for physical infrastructure is eliminated, so neobanks can extend
services to unbanked individuals, including those in rural areas, who may now easily
start accounts, undertake transactions, and freely access credit.
Neobanking – Best Ways to Bank On
Neobanks can also leverage data and technology to give users personalized and
tailored financial solutions. Through machine learning algorithms and data analytics,
such digital banks can assess the creditworthiness of people who lack known credit
histories, enabling them to gain access to loans and other financial products. This
data-driven approach decreases the reliance on things like collateral and other
conventional barriers to credit, opening up chances for small businesses and people
previously far removed from formal financial systems.
Neobanks also excel in providing cost-effective financial services. Traditional banks
often impose high fees and account minimums, making them unaffordable for
low-income individuals. Neobanks, with their low overhead costs, can offer
competitive interest rates, low transaction fees, and even fee-free accounts, making
banking services more affordable and accessible to a broader population.
2. The Final Word
Neobanks have the potential to bridge the gap in financial inclusion by leveraging
technology, data, and cost-effective solutions. By gaining access to underserved
populations, winning over geographical barriers, and giving personalized financial
services, neobanks empower people and businesses to partake more completely in
the formal financial system. As such digital platforms continue their evolution and
expansion, they have the potential to positively change the lives of millions.
Neobanks are engaged in generating economic opportunities as well as contributing
to inclusive growth worldwide.
