Financial Services and Government

Altran enables financial services in today’s doubtful market to recapture sustainable growth, transform their information & business technology, and benefit from the Group’s innovative product & service solutions.

We understand that our clients need solutions that are simultaneously in-tune with local market requirements and in keeping with best-of-practice standards.

To achieve this result we have set up transnational expertise-specific business clubs giving senior Altran consultants and managers from all of the Group’s Financial Services entities the opportunity to discuss ongoing business challenges, share their experiences and work together to design our business solutions.

This enables collaborators specialised in a given field in one country to share their expertise with foreign colleagues. Because of this, Altran can provide its clients with a diversified, “agile”, value offering.

"After years of strong growth that prompted the transformation and diversification of the services and activities of financial institutions, the recession has forced sector players to re-think their business models putting greater focus on tangible performance indicators and paying more attention to regulations and risk.

High volatility and uncertainty have affected many of the high-margin businesses that have underpinned profitability for years. As a result, banks are now refocusing on core activities in order to optimise efficiency, quality and innovation. Many control and revenue management systems and operational efficiency methods originating in other sectors are now being put to use for the benefit of the financial sector.

The financial crisis has also had a direct impact on regulations and risk management. While having to optimise their risk management tools, processes and structures, banks are also being subjected to increased scrutiny and new regulations which will directly impact operations and management strategies.

These trends are set against a wider background of technological change geared to optimise communication, interactivity and performance. These developments are of utmost importance at all levels of the financial sector since they will enable financial institutions to fine-tune their strategies, enhance their services and thus set themselves apart from their competitors."
