IT Challenges Facing Financial Services

The $57 Billion Problem Nobody Talks About

By 2028, financial institutions that fail to modernize their legacy systems will lose over $57 billion. Not from cyber attacks or regulatory fines—from missed opportunities and operational inefficiencies that pile up every single day. While executives debate digital transformation strategies, their decades-old COBOL systems quietly drain 75% of IT budgets just to keep the lights on.

Legacy Systems Bleeding Your Budget

Your decades-old core banking systems consume up to 75% of your IT budget just to keep running. COBOL programmers now command 2-3x premium salaries as expertise disappears. By 2028, institutions that fail to modernize risk losing over $57 billion in missed opportunities and operational inefficiencies.

Regulatory Compliance Complexity

SOX compliance alone costs most financial institutions over $1 million annually. New cybersecurity incident reporting requirements demand disclosure within 4 days of material impact. FINRA oversight extends across governance, risk management, technical controls, and incident response—creating constant audit pressure.

Sophisticated Cyber Threats

Financial data breaches now cost an average of $4.45 million per incident. Cybercriminals increasingly target third-party providers, knowing that one compromise can impact dozens of member firms. Your current security wasn’t designed for nation-state actors and organized crime syndicates.

Fintech Competition

Companies like Apple, Google, and Amazon leverage modern technology stacks to launch financial services in months, not years. While traditional banks face 18+ month development cycles, fintech competitors deliver the instant account opening that 43% of customers now expect—but only 37% of traditional banks can provide.

Third-Party Risk Explosion

FINRA observed a dramatic increase in cyberattacks targeting third-party providers in 2024. Your institution’s security is only as strong as your weakest vendor. Legacy procurement processes can’t keep pace with the due diligence modern risk management requires.

Talent Shortage Crisis

Finding professionals who understand both legacy financial systems and modern cybersecurity creates an impossible staffing equation. Your internal teams can’t become compliance experts, cybersecurity specialists, and modernization architects simultaneously.
