“Financial services are in the midst of unprecedented change, and financial institutions (FIs) are looking for ways to adapt and differentiate themselves in an increasingly competitive and digital market,” said Mike Hansen, CEO, Alkami. “This year’s virtual conference provides a forum for our clients to hear market insights and digital transformation strategies directly from industry leaders. We are also excited to share with attendees some of the latest innovations and future plans for the Alkami Platform to further accelerate their digital success.”

Client Conference Offerings Include Interactive Sessions and New Industry Research
Sessions will explore opportunities for FIs to chart a path forward for their digital strategy and continued success. This year features interactive sessions exploring the latest market trends and innovations in the industry. In addition, attendees will have access to virtual networking opportunities with some of the fastest growing banks and credit unions in the country and the most innovative technology partners in the industry. Speakers will also share how Alkami is helping these FIs address their growing digital banking needs through investment and innovation.

During the conference, Alkami will also reveal the results of a new primary research report, Digital Banking Market Pulse: The Increasing Importance of User Experience (UX), which showcases exclusive insights into how the very nature of the financial relationship has evolved. The report discusses how the digital banking experience is becoming the core of the industry—and how overall customer satisfaction is tied directly to it.

Key insights from the report include:

More than 80 percent of consumers said a quality online or mobile banking experience is among their top requirements when choosing a new financial institution.
39 percent indicated it as their number one criterion.
When asked to identify the greatest threat to their financial institution over the next 18 months, the “changing technology landscape” earned top marks, cited more times than low interest rates, cyber threats and uncertain regulations.

Alkami Founder and Chief Strategy & Sales Officer Stephen Bohanon will provide a business update and highlight Alkami’s continued investment in its product strategy. He will share how the company plans to enhance its user experience, implement new integrations and more.
