Peter Mockler Managing Partner – BearingPoint Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome! Innovation is a strong theme in this third edition of the BearingPoint Institute Report. As the economic turmoil starts to ease, opportunities are emerging for businesses and organisations to take the lead by embracing change and adapting before the competition. In some sectors change is mandated by regulators; in others evolving consumer behaviours are forcing a rethink. Common to most opportunities is the need to drive innovation, evolve business models and engage more closely with customers and clients. European banks face the dual challenges of a tightening regulatory framework and mounting commercial pressures. Our analysis shows that cost efficiency savings and risk-adverse policies only go so far in this post-financial crisis environment: agility together with innovation is the key to future growth. For instance, we learn in an interview with Crédit Agricole how the bank took the radical step of opening its customer data and enabled a community of developers to co-create mobile banking applications with, and for the benefit of, their customers. For insurance firms, a golden opportunity is knocking at their doors: the European Commission estimates that EUR 2 trillion of infrastructure investment is required to meet its Europe 2020 growth agenda. Our study shows that insurers are keen to bridge this financing gap, thus diversifying the ecosystem of infrastructure investors currently dominated by banks and industrial investors.
are driving bricks-and-mortar retailers into a ‘race to the bottom’, disadvantaging them in the battle against online shops. We look at how an integrated cross-channel commerce strategy can be the basis for innovation and differentiation. Flick though for more on how innovation is taking place across industries, from how hospitals can move ‘from curing to caring’ to the city of Chicago deploying situational awareness, read why Western companies can learn about ‘inclusive innovation’ from developing countries or should consider ‘why China now?’ The BearingPoint Institute is also innovating: this Issue 003 features more themes, a more concise and graphical presentation, and summaries in French and German. There are also video interviews with the authors, directly accessible on the device of your choice and from any format – print with augmented reality (see the Layar instructions below), iPad, Android, eBook or web. We hope you enjoy the issue. Please do drop us an email at editor@bearingpointinstitute.com to tell us what you think.
