Banking’s Real-Time Revolution with Maxim from Google Cloud

In this episode of The 2040 Banker, we sat down with Maxim, Financial Services Lead at Google Cloud JAPAC, to discuss how cloud, real-time processing, and Gen AI are reshaping the future of banking.

With over 20 years of experience in banking and financial services, Maxim previously led data and AI initiatives at Standard Chartered Bank and worked with McKinsey in Europe. Today, he collaborates with banks across Asia-Pacific, Japan, and globally to drive digital transformation.

In this podcast Maxim highlights points on:

• Real-Time Banking: Legacy systems are no longer viable, banks need real-time payments, loans, and customer interactions to stay relevant.
• Cloud Transformation: Banks are moving beyond cost-cutting and using the cloud to scale, innovate, and enhance customer experiences.
• Gen AI Adoption: Over 80% of banks globally are already using Gen AI in production or planning to go live in the next few months.
• Compliance & Security: Google Cloud’s Vertex AI offers built-in guardrails, IP indemnification, and regulatory collaboration to help banks adopt Gen AI securely.
