Embracing Innovation and Technology

Off Screen Text

October 2024

The custody industry is poised for significant transformation in the coming years, as we continue to integrate innovation. I recently had the opportunity to share insights with Global Finance on these developments, highlighting the role of technology, collaboration and strategic relationships.

Innovation in the financial services space is largely driven by rapid technological advancements, enhanced data analytics and the rise of automation and artificial intelligence. Clients’ expectations are also rising; institutional investors want a modern data experience, intuitive technology and advanced connectivity. At CIBC Mellon, we are actively investing in these cutting-edge technologies and collaborating with our clients, fintech leaders and technology companies to future-proof our business and streamline our operations.

We are committed to staying at the forefront of these changes, ensuring that we continue to provide our clients with cutting-edge solutions and services.
