Executive Dinner |
An Executive Dinner by GEN - The Global Executive Network is an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with experts and peers and discuss the latest and most important trends for a specific industry-related or management-focused topic.
Executive Dinners are usually attended by between 18 and 22 executive guests and participation is always free of charge.
Learn at the Executive Dinner “Business Transformation through IT Transformation” how IT executives in today’s leading financial institutions deal with the current market challenges, and engage in high-level networking.
According to McKinsey, on average, financial institutions spend a higher share of their revenues on IT—up to 9 percent—than other industries. Unfortunately the value of the investment is often not fully realized, as a result of insufficient controls on incoming demand, poor resource coordination, and a lack of performance transparency. Furthermore, a recent Gartner CFO Technology Study shows that the CFO's role in technology decisions has increased year over year, resulting in more oversight and control of the IT function in many organizations. The CFO's growing role in IT decision making is not primarily on cost management; rather, it's related to making sure it's a key strategic enabler, and ensuring that IT is in step with other efforts.
For the CIO in the Financial Services industry the imperative for IT financial management has become clear. Meeting the demands to support new product and channel innovation requires a significant operating budget for which the CFO expects to have role to play. At the same time Cloud and SaaS have become low-cost alternatives, the number of mobile devices increase by the day. Are the trade-offs understood and how should the CIO and CFO unite to align the IT budget with business priorities.
