Mr. Vito Giudici, Senior Partner, Mc Kinsey & Company Japan

The environment in which banks are now operating can be very challenging. Profitability needs to factor in low interest rates, regulatory requirements and possible competition by new market entrants.

Banks therefore need to consider whether to adopt new strategies to transform their business while maintaining their market position.

Vito Giudici from McKinsey & Company Global Financial Institution Practice will present a strategic view on the transformations awaiting the financial industry and will discuss developments and opportunities globally and in Japan. The presentation will focus on:

•  An assessment of the main forces driving banks’ profits.
•  An overview of  initiatives banks might implement to remain competitive.
•  The role of customer satisfaction, cost efficiency and profitability targets.
•  Why an integrated network economy matters to banks.
