Banking Digital Services 2026 RadarView™

May, 2026

This RadarView™ aims to assist banking enterprises in developing a robust strategy by providing insights into industry trends, best practices, and digital transformation. It begins with an overview of the key trends shaping the market’s supply side, followed by an in-depth assessment of 30 providers offering digital banking services. Each provider profile includes an overview of its industry-specific solutions, a list of representative clients and partnerships, and brief client case studies. Each profile concludes with analyst insights on the provider’s practice maturity and future-proofing, spanning investments and innovation and partner ecosystem.

Why read this RadarView?

Banking enterprises are reimagining customer engagement for digitally native consumers, shifting to digital‑first models across the banking life cycle. They are deploying Gen AI and agentic AI across core value streams—from credit memo generation and loan origination to intelligent KYC/AML workflows and real‑time fraud detection. In parallel, banks are investing in real‑time payments enablement and composable orchestration platforms. They are modernizing legacy cores through cloud‑native side‑core and dual‑core architectures. Additionally, banks are embedding compliance‑by‑design into digital platforms, leveraging AI‑driven regulatory intelligence and automated transaction monitoring to strengthen operational resilience.

The Banking Digital Services 2026 RadarView™ highlights key supply-side trends in the banking space and Avasant’s viewpoint on them. It helps banking companies identify top service providers to assist them in digitalizing their services. It also analyzes each service provider’s capabilities in technology and delivery support, enabling organizations to select the right strategic partners for the banking industry.
