As this report notes, these crises could take many different forms, whether by geopolitical disruption, macroeconomic hurdles or a changing climate. However, other influential forces are also at play – such as technological advances and the commoditisation of digital tools aided by growing regulatory support – and these can convert adversity into opportunity.
Banks and fintechs are a key part of this ecosystem. Recognising their crucial role, they are stepping up their capabilities and collaborating on a range of end-to-end solutions to assist institutional clients in navigating these hurdles. While banks cannot fulfil every role, ANZ is committed to leveraging its extensive global operations and decades of expertise in financial services to identify and address gaps. We are committed to strategic relationships to deliver solutions to our clients as needed, recognising that collaboration is essential in navigating the evolving landscape.
And by doing so, we are working with our partners and clients to contribute to the ongoing development of resilient global supply chains, so that international trade can grow in a robust and sustainable manner for decades to come.
