Building a better working world

Digital transformation (DX) is advancing at an increasingly rapid pace in financial services. The positive side of this is that advances such as new services and greater convenience for users are enriching society. Still, we also need to anticipate risks that we never had to think about before.

It is more important than ever to anticipate a range of risks and put precautions in place.

At EY and in my day-to-day activities, I will continue working to help build a world where people can use these new services with peace of mind.
