Taming the Beast: Real-Time IT Governance in Financial Services

Overview Financial institutions are grappling with drivers that tax the capacity of their IT infrastructure as the number of projects in their portfolios continues to grow exponentially. The migration from pension plans and funds to individual investments, outsourcing of back-office services, globalization, regulatory mandates and continuing mergers and acquisitions are challenges requiring a coordinated approach to IT management and governance for business success. In order to address these issues and deliver greater business value, financial institutions must focus on eliminating the communication gap between IT and the business side of the organization. This paper details the top financial services issues, IT responses and a unique integrated, real-time solution from CA.
