Wow!Banking initiative for the future of the German financial industry 

G+D Netcetera is a founding member of the Wow!Banking initiative in Germany. The initiative brings together experts from technology, consulting, academia, and practice to give the German financial market new impulse.

The German financial sector is changing fast. Anyone who takes responsibility for a bank takes responsibility for its customers, its employees, and the future viability of their institution. Efficiency, relevance, closeness, and clear direction don't pull in opposite directions here; today they are core expectations. That makes a place where decision-makers, innovators, and brands share their perspectives. 

Wow!Banking is an initiative run by people who know the industry. Its goal: to strengthen the future viability of Germany's banking sector and to create a space to shape change actively as international competitive pressure grows. The initiative drives the exchange of ideas on trends, technologies, and strategies, and strengthens the sector's capacity for innovation. It brings together technology, consulting, academia, and practice to give the German financial market fresh momentum. 

Wow!Banking's founding members are the European CRM/CX software maker BSI Software; fino digital, which specializes in open finance solutions; the software and consulting firm msg for banking; and G+D Netcetera, the software company specializing in digital solutions for the financial industry. 

"We're convinced that we as G+D Netcetera, with our long-standing expertise in Digital Banking, Payment & Security, Digital Identity, and Digital Wealth Management, will make a significant contribution to the dialogue within this expert group."
