2025 Banking Survey: Technology

Insights on technology, innovation, and security in the banking industry

The 2025 Banking Survey shows banks balancing immediate priorities like security and customer experience with long-term tech modernization, including significant investments in digital channels and GenAI for fraud detection and cybersecurity. Despite challenges in data privacy and quality, banks are increasing their cybersecurity budgets and using ISO 20022 compliance to add value and differentiate their offerings.

    We asked 200 executives across departments ranging from strategy to IT to assess their tech maturity, identify key investments, and evaluate their readiness for new tech paradigms that have the potential to create substantial operational and customer value.
