9:30 am | Aligning Business and IT: How Analytics Drives Collaboration
After over-relying on packaged applications and disparate decision support teams, financial services firms are confronting the realities of reactive reporting and fraught data. Fraud detection, risk avoidance, regulatory compliance, “know thy customer,” and other information-intensive mandates have become forces for renewed business understanding and reporting. The early-adopters are leveraging these as opportunities to drive a new level of awareness around managing analytics as a formal and strategic program. The laggards? The proliferation of silo-ed data and systems have forced them into a largely operational role, focused more on “keeping the lights on” than driving business value. Isolated individuals generate reports in a vacuum, many of which are obsolete by the time they hit the private banker’s iPad screen. So, is your organization visionary or lagging? In this presentation author and SAS Vice President Jill Dyché will discuss how financial services firms can manage BI and analytics programs as a portfolio of business capabilities. She’ll discuss how new rules of engagement between business and IT can either eliminate, support, or foster fact-based decisions. And she’ll describe how banks are using analytics and data management as fresh models for business-IT alignment and collaboration.

Enabled by technology, customers are interacting differently with suppliers than ever before. Today customer interactions are dynamic, accessible and continuous. In this new world, where customers no longer enter a channel but are continuously in the channel, the key to profitable growth is to master the resulting Nonstop-Customer Experience. Companies will need to hone advanced analytical abilities to follow and guide customers through the non-stop customer journey. They’ll need deep fluency in cutting-edge interactive technologies in order to provide relevance at scale – getting right customized interactions real-time to all customers. Examples from Banking and across service industries will be highlighted to illustrate how leaders are leveraging analytics to orchestrate the Non-Stop Customer Experience. B.
