R&D Insight presentations

09:00-09:30 Expanding the frontiers of financial services – enabled by smaller, cheaper computing on the move – supply chain, working capital, risk management and service delivery

Nigel Woodward – Worldwide Director Financial Services, Intel

– Presentation abstract: Computing in banking has traditionally been focused on process automation. Front, middle and back office operate islands of processing which variously integrate administration of transactions from capture to settlement.  These are tried and tested technologies. However look at emerging technologies and the picture changes. 3 axis drive innovation today – cost of compute, mobile and online; mix these elements and apply them to what business functions and the operational model can be challenged.  Data can be accessed earlier in the supply chain, huge amounts of transactions can be processed economically and information can be dispersed and accessed on the move to mobile devices.  This session will reveal today’s advances in chip capability and pose questions of where this might take the industry – challenging the status quo.
