Earlier this year, Frontira Strategic Design organised and curated the 12th Empowering Agile Conference focusing on the state of innovation in the financial services sector diving into the imperative to innovate as a means of both surviving and thriving in a world often running ahead of it. Check out the full recording of the conference here: Empowering Agile: Financial Services.
In parallel with the conference we surveyed senior business leaders working in the financial services sector and talked to real practitioners, those on the front line about innovation in their respective companies.

Highlights from our experts
‘With digital banks having a good grasp on these success factors, platforms like Revolut and N26 roll out on average 2.4 customer-facing innovations each month. That’s a high benchmark for legacy banks to meet.’
’The main hurdle that I see is ourselves. Our hurdles come from aligning on how we do innovation at Danske Bank, setting and balancing priorities. It can be tricky to balance prioritization. For example, when you have a ‘triangle’ between CX, regulation and efficiency, which should lead and drive critical decisions?’
‘Innovation is a necessity for a long-term sustainable business. It needs to be understood, incorporated into company culture and its operations.’
