You walk into your first meeting with a major bank. They casually mention that the core modernization program is running behind schedule, that the board is nervous about resilience after the Complicitos outage, and that everyone is asked what to do about artificial intelligence. They turn to you and ask how your firm can help. You want to say something sharper than, we do technology projects. Industry fluency is what makes the difference between winning the next corner station, and losing the rule. And that is exactly where this course leads you. My name is Dérick Théon. I am a consultant in artificial intelligence adoption, tiering RTVI, and trade finance. My professional background is first rooted in banking. I spent more than 20 years in capital investment banking, with a strong focus on transaction banking, trade finance, working capital, then cash management, and supply chain finance. I held commercial and originationals at JP Morgan, Barclays, and HSBC. Today, through Equitas Conservatives, I help companies move from curiosity about artificial intelligence to concrete, control, and useful adoption. Welcome to Banking, Technology, Innovation, and AI. By the end of this course, you will be able to describe the banking technology landscape, from core systems and the tech stack, to infrastructure and security. Explain how cloud, automation, and data platforms are reshaping how banks operate and serve customers. Analyze how banks adopt AI, advanced analytics, and emerging technologies, including their maturity, use cases, and risks. Recognize the technology challenges banks face, from legacy constraints and data quality, to security and change management. I identify consulting opportunities by connecting technology and AI pressures to where you can add the most value. I look forward to walking through this course with you. Let us get started and being the free on scene that turns you into a credible voice in your next banking technology conversation.
