Born in the world of start-up companies, agility knocked on the door of traditional organisations years ago. Often competing for the same markets, these companies must be able to adjust to the changing market environment and evolving customer expectations. Today, agile methodologies are the norm for most leading organisations. Benefits enjoyed by organisations that have already completed their agile transitions encourage more and more financial players to begin the agile transformation journey.

During our panel discussion “Pros and cons of agility in finance”, we will talk about the main grounds for agile transformation, challenges of the agile journey and expected outcomes. We will compare the existing approaches, define what makes transformation successful and discuss the potential pitfalls in the adaptation of the agile approach.
