Goldman Sachs' 11,000 Software Engineers
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on February 16, 2019, 3:03 PMU.S. banks are evolving software companies that offer banking services. These are points to note:
- Goldman Sachs employs about 11,000 software engineers - 30% of its total workforce. It uses these engineers to create services for clients.
- JP Morgan Chase is creating a crypto as I reported. Most leading U.S. banks are doing same.
- Most U.S. banks like Citi and Bank of America have tech accelerators to help them innovate
If you look at these elements, one thing is clear: banking is nothing but a specialized area of technology business. A bank needs technology to run and transform its business. Simply, every business is largely a technology business. If you know nothing about technology, take action and invest in your future because all works are converging into technology.
