According to Ajiboye, banks had to embrace technology if they wanted to remain competitive because financial technology firms and even telecommunication companies were beginning to offer some bank-related services. 

“Telcos are giving banks a run for their money. Hence, banks need to be proactive in recognizing the impact of digitization on their services and overall operations. 

“It is important to understand and constantly discuss how technology is transforming the banking landscape,” Ajiboye said.
