LinkedIn and Hootsuite partnered to develop new research on how technology and social media is transforming the financial services industry.
With trust suffering post GFC, technological disruption has shifted Australian preferences and demand for financial products and services. Customer relationships have become increasingly digital and financial services executives must adapt to compete in the face of digital disruption.
At this exclusive executive event, we shared key insights from the research paper. Including the future role of the executive within the Australian financial services industry.
Through keynotes and panel discussions attendees learnt about:
Digital disruption across FSI in Australia
-The impact of technology on customer expectations
-Social media as a tool to capitalise on disruption
-The role of leaders and executives within FSI
