Jain spoke about the importance of effective corporate governance and governance structure and processes when it comes to staying prepared for future risks. Technological disruptions, evolving customer expectations and cybersecurity threats, among other things, have put forth new sets of risks for the banks across technology, business and operations. His advice for addressing these challenges was to focus on tech adoption.
“To prepare for the future," Jain recommended that Indian banks “adopt innovative technologies such as AI and blockchain," along with focusing on digital transformation, enhancing customer experience, and investing in cybersecurity measures.
