The financial industry has undergone a strong transition in recent years. Where previously finance was mentioned in the same breath as figures and statistics, it can no longer escape several new elements. Regulations have become an increasingly important part of the finance domain since the financial crisis. The regulators set out lines that listen closely to pursue sound business operations. Risks are often seen as something negative. Within the risk domain, this is looked at differently. A good risk policy ensures that risks can become opportunities. Often opportunities in the commercial field. As long as the risks are well covered and control measures are taken.

In todays society, data will play an increasingly prominent role within every organization. For companies, the question is not whether they should become data-driven, but how. You need a company-wide vision that indicates how data structurally contributes to your company’s mission and why data is a strategic business asset. Many companies have now realized that data is not a by-product of systems and processes, but the most important raw material for the 21st century. The associated roles and functions are therefore relatively new in the market.

IT has become an increasingly important part of our lives in recent years. The digitization of the world is increasing at a rapid pace and IT plays a major role in this. From e-commerce, healthcare to the financial world, IT is present everywhere and with digitization and continuous growth and development, there will be a never-ending market. Can you remember 15 years ago, the first mobile phone? Look where we are now and this is just the beginning.
