Episode 277,   Apr 27, 2022, 09:00 AM

Philippe De Backer and Juan Gonzalez are coming back for a second episode on LID Radio. This time they discuss whether traditional banks can strike back and compete with the NeoBanks.

Philippe De Backer is Managing Partner and Global Practice Leader of Financial Services at Arthur D. Little. Philippe draws from his extensive experience as a global leader in financial services to share a proactive view on the disruption in banking and emerging business models, which are reshaping the sector and many industries as traditional business boundaries are blurring. 

Juan Gonzalez is a Partner at Arthur D. Little. He has worked extensively on the impact of technological change on the information flows that shape organizations and their interactions with their environment.

Philippe and Juan are co-authors of the book Disruption, together with Arthur D. Little's CEO Ignacio Garcia Alves.

Disruption provides a critical understanding of the impact of the current economic crisis and the current industrial revolution on financial services, the new trends in the sector, and the opportunities for banks to leverage their unique assets and pre-empt challengers from gaining meaningful market share. The book also provides top-level advice about transforming financial services organizations by finding the right balance between short-term requirements and the imperative of long-term change. This balancing act is what the authors call the “ambidextrous approach”, which requires focus on two strategic initiatives: performance and innovation.
