Omdia: Only 15% of banks have a well-defined sustainability strategy

omdia:-only-15%-of-banks-have-a-well-defined-sustainability-strategy

LONDON, Oct. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Ahead of next month’s COP28 summit, Omdia’s new report, ‘Market Landscape: State of Sustainability in Retail Banking’, has found the vast majority of banks do not have a fully-functional sustainability strategy; many are still analyzing, despite sustainability being a matter of strategic concern for several decades.

The increasing regulation around net zero presages a general movement from guidelines toward formal legislation around sustainability targets and standards. This presents banks with a significant task to respond accordingly within their strategies and policies.  
Key findings from the study include:
Just 15% of retail banks stated they have a well-defined sustainability strategy that includes their supply chain, slightly below the global average of 18%.A larger number (36%) of banks with revenues between $50-$999m stated that they are in the assessment or formulation stage of building a sustainability strategy.Keeping up with the latest regulations and developments is the most challenging aspect, with 45% of retail banks noting this as one of their top three priorities.39% of respondents overall put a lack of employee engagement and 36% a lack of clear metrics and suppliers who do not share their sustainability goals as challenges.Many businesses are still in the early stages of building their sustainability strategies and deploying technology solutions to move them towards their ESG goals. The key concern is the lack of a clear definition of sustainability in retail banking that is hampering banks’ efforts to implement it into their businesses in a way that is consistent with their broader strategic objectives.
Ouliana Smith, Omdia Senior Research Analyst commented: “Retail banks that are focused exclusively on the delivery of services will have meaningful impacts on sustainability only by leveraging their strategy through their supply chain; data centers, and manufacturers of the devices through which their services are deployed and used.
“Banks need to understand the developments across their entire value chain and monitor progress in real-time. Given the complexity of any major change in the value chain, as all suppliers will also be grappling with their own transition to sustainability, it is better to start sooner rather than later.”

Compliance to Remain a Key Cloud Security Concern for All Companies through 2031
Compliance has always been a key part of any security solution and the same is also true for cloud security as well. Regulatory bodies and governments have been implementing stricter laws and mandates to ensure the safety of data on cloud platforms. Ensuring compliance with these norms is essential for any cloud service provider, which is why a security solution that understands and manages compliance is always in demand. Ensuring cross-border compliance could help cloud security companies get more bang for their buck in the future. 
Legal issues and data privacy concerns are also estimated to drive up the demand for novel cloud security solutions. Complex legal and regulatory frameworks are also contributing to the high adoption of cloud security with legal security features as well.

High Use of Cloud Platforms and Technologies in the IT Industry Creates an Opportune Setting for Cloud Security Vendors
The information technology (IT) industry has always led the adoption of novel technologies and the cloud is one of them. The rising use of cloud platforms and migration of traditional technologies in cloud environments are boosting the demand for cloud security in the IT industry. The BFSI industry will also offer new moneymaking scope for cloud security providers as it moves towards digitization and the incidence of digital frauds increases. Telecommunication end users are also expected to bolster the demand for novel cloud security solutions as they utilize cloud technology to become digital service providers. Adoption of automation and smart manufacturing practices in the manufacturing space will also promote the use of cloud platform, which in turn, is expected to boost cloud security demand as well.
Cloud security companies have a lot of potential to expand their business in many industry verticals. New companies can focus on providing services to build a strong market presence and then move on to making cloud security solutions to compete with the leading market players.
