Customer experience

As financial services organisations strive to deliver seamless digital experiences, ensuring the security of customer data and transactions remains paramount. How can financial institutions deliver seamless customer experiences, but ensure information stays locked down?

Reusable identity advancements

Reusable digital identities, enabled by wallets and verifiable credentials, lets customers share verified attributes across institutions without repeating KYC. For banks, this means faster onboarding, lower costs, and improved compliance. It also reduces fraud risks and enhances customer trust, making identity both a strategic asset and efficiency driver.

Fraud & scams

The increase in volume and sophistication of fraud attacks, from social engineering to insider threats, is a major concern for financial providers. With regulatory changes now shifting the burden of liability, how can innovation and education help to protect customers?

KYC, KYB and KYA

Knowing the identity of every customer, employee, business and autonomous agent is becoming more and more critical, especially in the highly regulated financial services industry. How can innovation in digital identity verification enhance efficiency, productivity, user experience and fraud reduction?

Data protection

In an era of increasing cyber threats and data breaches, building and maintaining customer trust is essential for financial institutions. Ensuring strong data protection is paramount in fostering trust and loyalty among customers.

Digital onboarding

Customers demand instant, seamless experiences, while regulators tighten compliance on KYC, AML, and fraud detection. Security must be balanced with usability and responsible integration of AI whilst addressing rising digital identity risks, without alienating users through unnecessary friction or eroding trust.
