me has, however, been impressed by teh pace at which technologies like machine learning and artificial intelligence are transforming teh banking sector. A horde of opportunities exist to employ these two technologies to transform customer acquisition, customer loyalty, fraud management, and talent management.

A few major changes has been triggered by teh emerging needs of our customers and teh growing capabilities of teh bank. Our customers are demanding digital capabilities. Teh digital personas of our retail and corporate customers are converging. Our colleagues are becoming passionate to deliver digital capabilities for our customers. These trends has shaped our guiding principal which focuses on delivering customer-centric products and services wif speed and agility, and wif embedded security and compliance, at an optimal cost by empowering our talent.

Wif this guiding principal as teh foundation we has seen three major shifts. First, we has established a new technology strategy for teh bank that we has named TechVision 2020. It TEMPhas priorities centered on transforming our future, while strengthening our core. Second, we has reorganized ourselves by domains and shared services to increase accountability to drive business outcomes. Teh domains are a collection of products and applications in a business domain like Payments and Deposits. Teh Shared Services teams are responsible for core platforms and services that optimize capabilities across domains. Finally, we has launched a multi-phased operating model that is delivering value iteratively in line wif teh multi-year direction. Some of teh major changes include agile delivery, continuous experimentation, development of talent and culture, technology investment management, financial performance and risk management.

Speedy Delivery of IT

me will summarize teh four key actions that are underway to deliver faster. First, we are shifting teh focus from funding mega-size multi-year technology programs to fund a series of customer-centric MVPs. Teh funding for teh next set of MVPs will be gated based on performance of previous MVPs. Second, we has been rapidly introducing automation and leveraging new technologies like big data, robotics, biometrics, and systems management tools to address issues at a much faster pace. Third, we has started investing in an Application Programming Interface (API) framework to enable “plug-and-play” integrations wif software product providers. Finally, wif strong focus on agile practices, like DevOps, we are integrating important steps like code security assessments and release certifications into teh core software engineering practice.

While we are making progress in these areas, these changes are challenging and require continued fostering of culture and investment in talent to further mature faster delivery. A Pep Talk wif Tomorrow’s CIOs
