In the presentation session, Rivan Achmad Purwantono and Adhi Brahmantya said that in anticipation of VUCA in the banking industry, strengthening of the structure, IT, resilience and competitiveness of the banking industry, adequate business processes and infrastructure, and financing to support development is needed. In addition, the role of the owner is also needed in the form of a commitment to development and capability as well as a commitment to rescue. “One of the things that must be done by the banking industry that changes the ecosystem, one of which is digitization,” he said.
