💥 What will the UK banking sector look like in 5 years? UK banks are projected to invest over £1.8 billion in GenAI to boost productivity, cut costs, and deliver new customer experiences, according to a new Zopa Bank – Juniper Research study. 💡 187 million hours of labour could be saved by 2030  💰 Cost savings will match the total investment, with 100% ROI by 2030 and more value later 📈 Back-office functions are set to see the largest financial gains, especially in high street banks with a large network of branches 💻 10% of UK banking jobs could be at risk of displacement from GenAI In response to this challenge, Zopa Bank has launched Jobs 2030, a five-year campaign to reskill 100,000 UK banking workers in AI disciplines. We invite banks, fintechs and wider industry partners to join the campaign at [email protected]   📚 Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/ebbJ4PC4 💚 Learn more or get involved: www.jobs2030.ai #ZopaBank #Jobs2030 #Banking #Fintech #GenAI

💡 Zopa Bank welcomes the reforms outlined by the Chancellor, Rt Hon Rachel Reeves, in her Mansion House speech this week. 📢 On the reforms, Zopa’s CEO Jaidev Janardana said: “As a growing bank, continually innovating and expanding to meet more customer needs, we welcome the reforms announced by the Chancellor today. Economic growth depends on customers being able to choose from the widest range of providers, each striving to offer them the best experience and value. To support this, innovative challengers need a level playing field to grow. The streamlined process for obtaining new regulatory permissions and the new dedicated regulatory unit to support banks in the scaling phase will help realise these aims.” 🚀 We look forward to supporting HM Treasury as it brings this vision to life.
