Every industry is feeling the effects of the information revolution, but capital markets are a bit different. A perfect storm of stagnating revenues, increased competition and weak financial returns - a combination we’re calling ‘compressive disruption’- is forcing capital market firms to evolve and reinvent in their own way. Between now and 2022, the capital markets industry will be shaped by automation. Change is neither cheap nor easy, but firms could begin to align their organizations.
Technology serves as a key driver of value migration in the capital markets industry. While speed, informational advantage, efficient customer flow, and effective use of proprietary capital have always been essential aspects of a profitable market-making business, the way these elements are implemented is changing dramatically.
Blockchain Will Make Capital Markets More efficient
One of the most hyped technologies today, Blockchain is estimated to be the platform that is going to store 10 percent of global GDP by 2027. Blockchain, or distributed ledger technology, will also become more critical for capital markets firms. Blockchain can create the smart contracts enabled with the encryption for transactions, [creating] distributed records. This will help in using real-time transparent data and create efficient settlement and transaction processing.
Distributed ledger technology, or DLT, can be used for issuing and transferring securities and could eliminate the need for intermediaries that provide settlement and depository functions DLT can be logical, efficient alternative to allow seamless and secure data transmission throughout the capital markets ecosystem. Blockchain can bring significant efficiency to current post-trade processes and can potentially shorten the settlement cycle.

Turian Labs: Perfecting Design Thinking to Strategic Foresights
‘Empathy is the new strategy’- the mnemonic has been doing the rounds. Empathy is the hallmark of a new method that walked into the strategy domain in the last decade, popularised by the term ‘Design Thinking.’ Design Thinking came in to fill the void created by over-dependence upon data and systems in the industrialized society. Bringing a shift in perspective for defining the ‘real’ problem by zooming in on ‘people’ or ‘stakeholders’ instead of the data alone. One pioneering business organization that was established with this mindset engraved into its soul is Turian Labs. The name, Turian, is derived from the Sanskrit ‘Turiya’, which is the ‘fourth state of consciousness’ as mentioned in Indian philosophy. Turian Labs believes that the world needs holistic thinking today more than ever as knowledge fields are rather too dithered and hence businesses tend to be myopic on several counts.
