Abstract
This Financial Insights report presents Financial Insights' top 10 strategic
initiatives for 2007. Institutions are now much more demanding as they analyze
potential projects and financial results. As institutions struggle to link IT
investment with business value, it is also important to understand what other
institutions consider key strategic initiatives. With the Financial Insights
top 10, banks can calibrate their initiatives against those of their peers and
make sure they are preparing well for the future.
According to Jeanne Capachin, research vice president, "Financial institutions
and banks in particular invest heavily in IT, but their track record for
achieving projected returns on their investments has been unacceptable."
