The Middle East Banking Innovation Summit is proud to announce that Nucleus Software,the leading provider of lending and transaction banking solutions to the global financial services industry, is participating as a gold sponsor at the event which will be held September 18-19,2017 in Dubai. Organized by global conference producers, Expotrade, the summit in its 7^th year will focus on the region’s Fintech market, technology driven banking trends and the emerging challenges with digitalization.

The growing popularity of FinTech and the rise of digitization has created both threats and opportunities for banks in the Middle East. To stay ahead and take advantage of the evolving market dynamics, banks need to leverage digitization and analytics to provide superior customer experiences–giving customers what they want, when and where they want it at an attractive and profitable price.According to Capgemini, 64% of banking customers in the Middle East and Africa are already using FinTech products and services. However, while 96% of banking executives agree that the industry is evolving toward a digital banking ecosystem, only 13% say they have the systems in place to support it. How can banks and financial service companies compete in this challenging environment? How can they deliver the experiences that consumers are demanding, across the channels they want, and how can they do it all profitably?

Daragh O’Byrne, Global Head, Marketing and Alliances, Nucleus Software will be speaking at this event on how innovative the use of digital, personalization and analytical capabilities can help financial service companies drive the future of lending and help them become the “Bank of Tomorrow – Today” During the event, Nucleus Software’s experts will engage in discussions with leading banks to show them how to leverage the power of digital and analytics to attain their business objectives.
