Summary

This Financial Insights report provides the profiles of fifteen selected IT vendors targeting the Western European financial services space. The analysis includes both a general perspective on the most widespread strategies IT vendors are currently adopting and an in-depth profile for each vendor and its financial services offerings.

Financial Insights provides its perspective on how each IT vendor is moving in the market, and its objectives and targets. The final part of the report is dedicated to the evolution IT vendors should consider when addressing their go-to-market strategies.

According to Angela Vacca, senior research analyst for European IT Opportunity: Financial Services research, "Choosing the right go-to-market strategy is the real issue when a market is changing as rapidly as the Western European financial services marketplace is. 2005 has been another successful year for Western European financial institutions and therefore they have budgets to spend in IT. The issue is how to grab a slice of this cake in a sector that is increasingly complex and as the competition becomes rapidly fiercer."
