The Future of Digital Banking

Our report, written in collaboration with the Commonwealth Bank, stimulates thinking about how the banking industry can work smarter with consumers.

The Papua New Guinea financial services industry continues to maintain its relatively strong position compared to many other developed economies.

The strategic agenda for the industry is dominated by evolving regulation and embedding a risk management culture, demographic changes, increased investment in technology, including core systems, mobile platforms and social media and with new competition from non-traditional financial services’ entrants a renewed focus on the customer.

KPMG supports our clients in responding to the strategic agenda by assisting them to anticipate future challenges, capitalise on opportunities and execute projects effectively.
