The Financial Services industry
The financial services industry is changing. Increasing regulation, growing competition, rapid globalization, increasing number of Islamic Financial Institutions, and changing consumer needs are posing unprecedented challenges to financial institutions. In these turbulent and uncertain times, financial institutions are counting on technology more than ever to drive their business strategies.
 
With rising expenditure on IT by the region's financial services industry, the question on the technology investment and its returns are being reassessed and the news is not always good. The regions financial institutions are estimated to have spent close to one billion dollars on technology and compounding annually, and this spend is expected to register continued growth over the next several years.
Even the largest financial services organizations are under tremendous competitive pressures. Deregulation, globalization, and constant change have bankrupted yesterday's sense of certainty. Today's financial institutions require a new type of IT solution that can adapt immediately, deliver extreme realtime security and availability, and ensure data integrity with full accountability.
