Information technology in banking, financial services, and insurance involves using IT for a wide range of banking, financial, and insurance services. This includes managing data processing, application testing, software development, IT-enabled services, business process outsourcing, and technical and professional services.
Within the IT BFSI (Information Technology in Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) sector, the main service categories are managed services and professional services. Managed services involve the delivery of network, application, infrastructure, and security services to clients through continuous support and active administration either on their premises, within the MSP's data center, or in a third-party data center. The technologies used in this process include cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, business intelligence, enterprise resource planning (ERP), human capital management (HCM), enterprise content management (ECM), customer relationship management (CRM), and unified communications. These technologies are deployed in both on-premises and cloud environments across organizations of varying sizes, including small, medium, and large enterprises.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the information technology sector, especially in hardware manufacturing, data infrastructure, and software deployment. Increased duties on imported semiconductors, circuit boards, and networking equipment have driven up production and operating costs for tech companies, cloud service providers, and data centers. Firms that depend on globally sourced components for laptops, servers, and consumer electronics are grappling with extended lead times and mounting pricing pressures. At the same time, tariffs on specialized software and retaliatory actions by key international markets have disrupted global IT supply chains and dampened foreign demand for U.S.-made technologies. In response, the sector is ramping up investments in domestic chip production, broadening its supplier network, and leveraging AI-powered automation to improve resilience and manage costs more effectively.

The growing adoption of digital payment methods is anticipated to significantly boost the IT BFSI market in the future. Digital payment refers to transactions conducted through various electronic mediums. These payments lead to shorter wait times and enhance the in-store experience for customers, while also eliminating the need for customers to visit physical branches, as all banking processes are digitized. This shift replaces the bank's physical presence with a continuous online presence, facilitated by information technology. For example, in November 2023, Banked Ltd., a UK-based payments technology company, reported that US consumers are diversifying their financial practices, with 79.2% of respondents now using 2-5 payment methods monthly, a significant increase from 57% in 2022. Debit cards remain the most preferred option at 66.6%, followed by PayPal at 53%. Other popular payment methods include Venmo (16.4%), credit cards (51.4%), e-wallets (20.4%), Cash App (31.6%), and bank transfers (10%). Hence, the rising penetration of digital payment methods is expected to drive the growth of the IT BFSI market.
The increasing adoption of cloud computing is projected to further stimulate the growth of the IT BFSI market. Cloud adoption refers to the widespread implementation and use of cloud computing services by individuals, organizations, or industries to remotely store, manage, and access data and applications. Cloud-based platforms facilitate the rapid development and deployment of new financial products and services, enabling BFSI institutions to maintain a competitive edge. For instance, in December 2023, the European Commission (EC), the executive body of the European Union (EU) based in Belgium, stated that the adoption of cloud solutions in the EU increased by 4.2 percentage points in 2023, with 45.2% of enterprises utilizing cloud computing services, marking a notable rise compared to 2021. Therefore, the increasing cloud adoption is set to drive the growth of the IT BFSI market.
Technological advancement is a prominent trend gaining traction in the IT BFSI market. Leading companies in this sector are creating innovative technologies to enhance their competitive edge. For example, in August 2024, NPST, a digital banking and payments technology firm based in India, introduced a suite of seven AI-powered digital payment products at the Global Fintech Fest 2024. These solutions, which include the Risk Intelligence Decisioning Platform and EVOK 3.0 Payments Platform, aim to improve fraud prevention, streamline transaction processing, and deliver personalized payment experiences for banks, payment aggregators, and merchants.
Leading companies in the IT BFSI (Information Technology for Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) market are directing their efforts towards developing innovative solutions, including Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) technology, to cater to the needs of banks and financial institutions. GPTs are a type of large language model (LLM) that has gained prominence as a framework for generative artificial intelligence (AI). For example, in March 2023, Trustt, an India-based digital banking platform serving banks, non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), microfinance institutions (MFIs), and fintech firms, unveiled its First Major GPT Product Suite for the Banking Industry. This suite introduces personalized services, enhances operational efficiency through task automation, and leverages Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) technology to improve natural language processing capabilities. In the IT BFSI market, this suite is expected to elevate customer experiences, streamline operational processes, and signify a significant adoption of advanced AI capabilities, thereby contributing to increased competitiveness and innovation within the sector.
