Business survival and continued relevance, therefore, depend on the ability to proactively and effectively adjust business models to align with the rapidly changing landscape. As part of their transformation agenda, FSI companies are leveraging social media (which now serves as a major marketing channel), and investing massively in digital transformation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Alternative Data, Big Data, Cloud-enabled Business Models, Robotics Process Automation (RPA). The objective is to achieve cost efficiencies, improve digitisation and faster transactions, etc. The growth prospects that come with these have intensified the war for talent, as the key players seek competitive advantage as well as carving a niche in the market.

Attracting, retaining and motivating the talent required to drive strategy execution, therefore, requires keeping abreast of pay market trends and developments.
