Deloitte has published a short research paper titled "Cleared for Takeoff - Five megatrends that will change financial services". This research report follows on from work that Deloitte did with the World Economic Forum (WEF) over approx 18 months to conduct a large study about the future of financial services. The purpose of the WEF project was to understand how disruptive innovations were reshaping the business of financial services as it exists today.
This report looked at how clusters of innovation are affecting business in five areas of financial services: primary accounts, payments, capital markets, investment management and insurance.
