Our expertise in the financial sector
Over the years, many organisations in the financial sector have relied on iO's expertise. And although the core of services rendered in this sector revolves around transactions, we know better than anyone that every type of service involves niche expertise. In recent years, our experts have worked with a variety of financial institutions in:
Financials relying on iO's expertise
Benefit from our in-depth domain knowledge
As a partner of organisations in the financial sector, we not only keep an eye on interesting developments for the customer experience of insurers, banks, consumer finance or payment service providers. We are also fully aware of developments regarding legislation and regulations and the impact on the (continued) development of applications, cloud or integration solutions. We understand the dependencies of the regulated context, act accordingly and our way of working is also ISO27001-certified.
In addition, you can also expect the following benefits from partnering up with iO:
• A customised form of collaboration. For example, with Scaled Agile (SAFe) and PII quarterly processes, including early insight into the scope of the work ahead.
• Attention to all perspectives of a system or solution. For example, by involving Risk, Legal and Compliance at an early stage and explicitly addressing the additional information they need in refinements, such as clear flow charts and data overviews.
• Solutions that comply with all current laws and regulations. All digital platforms and marketing automation solutions developed by iO experts comply with all industry standards in terms of security frameworks, audibility requirements and data protection legislation.
Easy digital insurance overview - or lack thereof - the No. 1 reason for switching
What is more valuable than insights, directly from consumers? In collaboration with research firm BUFFL, iO conducted a survey among 1,500 Belgian and Dutch insurance customers.

Technology as a strategic business partner
Sometimes we think digital is future talk entirely, but when it comes to impactful decisions, consumers still want the option of speaking to an adviser. So, the future of finance is not just digital, it is phygital. With a frictionless brand experience across all touchpoints. Omnichannel is and will therefore remain the answer, with technology as a means and not an end. For example, with the deployment of:
Customer Data Platform (CDP) and Marketing Automation: as a source of smart personalisation strategies for, among other things, personalised advice, responding to life events or honing product offerings. By using relevant insights from a 360-degree customer view, you understand customers better and create better experiences, loyalty and cross-sell options. With extensive experience and in-depth expertise, iO's experts help set up marketing solutions that are secure, scalable and effective.
Artificial Intelligence: for countless applications, from detecting fraudulent activity to improving customer service using intelligent chat engines. iO's experts help financials make meaningful and secure use of the powerful capabilities AI creates.
Cloud technology: more and more organisations are relying on large cloud providers, such as AWS and Azure, for the complexity of modern infrastructure. The standards they create regarding Cloud Security Posture Management are leading the way and are quickly becoming the market standard. As an Advanced partner, iO CloudOps centres support specific infrastructure projects and our cloud-specialised development teams choose cloud-native software development where appropriate. From running APIs and services to connecting and making data available. All the way from the front-end to deep into the core of a system landscape.

Protect your platform from hackers with a Web Application Firewall like Cloudflare
The internet is a hostile place. There are numerous scripts running constantly, that do nothing but look for vulnerable digital platforms using old(er) software releases. This activity is independent from the hackers that are doing their best to take advantage of vulnerabilities. Platforms operating without older software vulnerabilities are also prone to this. How do you defend yourself against this type of attacks? And how do you prevent your platform from suffering performance degradation if you have your security affairs in order?Read moreCase
