In 2022, InterSystems, the leading provider of next generation solutions for critical enterprise digital transformations, commissioned data analyst firm, Vitreous World, to survey 554 business leaders within financial services companies including commercial, investment, and retail banks across 12 countries globally. This included 176 line of business leaders in the APAC (Asia Pacific) region across ANZ (Australia and New Zealand) and Asia (Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore).

The survey sought to uncover the biggest technology and data challenges facing financial services organisations in the region as well as their key data initiatives and priorities for the coming year.

These survey results form the basis of this report, which also explores how Asia Pacific -based firms can overcome the issues identified and ensure that their established data architectures deliver the capabilities needed to drive innovation and futureproof their organisations.
