Title: "Digital Transformation in Financial Services: a perspective from an industry outsider"

Abstract: Retail industry has gone through a significant transformation in the last decade; caused by the change in consumer behaviour and expectations which have been driven by the convenience and low cost offered by Amazon. There are clear signs of a similar disruption in the financial services industry now, driven by new entrants who are changing consumer expectations. In this talk, Rahul looks at the evolution of retailers and draws conclusions about the path players in the financial services have to take to compete and provide customer experiences that will be necessary to compete.

Title: "Data strategy as a conduit for data maturity and monetization"
