Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Digital technology and digital disruption have burst onto the scene as key levers for cost management and business transformation around the world and throughout the banking industry. In Deloitte’s 2017 Biennial Global Cost Survey,1 digital disruption was identified as an emerging risk by respondents in the United States but was barely visible elsewhere. Now, however, digital risks—including digital disruption and cybersecurity—rank among the top external risks for banks in all regions.
Banks today face significant challenges from every direction. The ongoing environment of low or even negative interest rates continues to create intense margin pressure and barriers to growth. At the same time, increased competition from Neobanks and FinTechs continues to nibble away at the edges of the traditional banking business, posing a constant threat of disruption. Meanwhile, customer preferences and expectations are endlessly shifting and rising as new and incumbent digital innovators redefine how services are presented and delivered.
In this challenging environment, cost management remains a strong imperative for the entire global banking industry; however, the prevailing mindset seems to be expanding from save-to-grow to save-to-transform. Most banks continue to have very positive expectations for revenue growth, and many are using cost reduction as a tool to help fund their required growth investments. However, in today’s increasingly digital world, more and more banks also recognize the need to transform their operations and capabilities with infrastructure investments in key digital innovations, such as robotic process automation, cognitive technologies, business intelligence, and cloud-based ERP systems.
These digital technologies and innovations can deliver dramatic improvements in competitiveness, performance, operating efficiency and, increasingly, cost savings. Equally important, they can also strengthen a bank’s positioning for adverse future events, including economic downturns and digital disruption.
With digital innovation emerging as a critical enabler for both cost reduction and business transformation, we are delighted to present the results from our latest global cost survey. The study includes responses from more than 1,200 executives and senior leaders around the world with direct involvement in cost management, including 188 respondents from major banks.
This report provides an up-to-date view of the cost management practices and trends shaping the future of banking and global business. It also takes a detailed look at how the latest digital technologies and cost management strategies are acting as a catalyst for transformation in a world being actively redefined by digital disruption.

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Executive summaryHow is banking different?
Cost reduction is slightly more prevalent in banking than globally across industries. In the banking sector, 72% of the surveyed companies plan to undertake cost reduction initiatives over the next 24 months, slightly higher than the global average (71%).
The save-to-transform mindset is even more prevalent in banking than globally. The save-to-transform mindset is characterized by a simultaneous strategic focus on sales growth, cost reduction, product profitability, technology implementation, and digital enablement. Compared to the global respondent pool across industries, banking respondents report higher priority levels in all those areas.
Digital leaders have a bigger impact in banking than globally across industries. On average, banks with a designated digital leader have a much higher level of technology implementation (+275%), even higher than the implementation impact of a digital leader globally across industries (+118%).
Banks are more positive than average about growth. Over the past 24 months, 89% of banking respondents had a positive revenue outlook—higher than the global average across all industries (86%). Similarly, for the next 24 months, the banking sector’s revenue outlook is even more positive (90%) than the global average (86%).
Expected implementation rates are higher than average for automation and cloud technologies. In the banking sector, implementation rates for digital technology over the next 24 months are expected to be slightly higher than the global averages across industries for automation (+3%) and cloud solutions (+4%), but lower for cognitive technologies (-5%) and business intelligence (-12%).

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Digital rises to the top of the agenda.Two digital risks—cybersecurity and digital disruption—are now recognized as the top external risks in banking. Meanwhile, technology implementation has emerged as the sector’s top-rated strategic priority over the next 24 months.
Save-to-grow.Most banks have been firmly grounded in save-to-grow mode where cost and growth are the main business levers, with talent (including capabilities) as another key component. In this mode, cost reduction is a high priority, with cost savings used to fund growth initiatives and strategic investments that support a differentiated business strategy.
Save-to-grow expands into save-to-transform.Many banks are now shifting into save-to-transform mode, with the save-to-grow mindset expanding to include a strong focus on digital enablement and technologies. This shift can transform a bank and help it capitalize on digital opportunities, while at the same time positioning the business for potential adversity that may be on the horizon—such as an economic downturn or credit crisis—using digital innovations to unlock new levels of cost savings, efficiency, and financial performance.

Most findings from this year’s global cost-management survey are directionally consistent across all industries and major geographic regions. However, there are a handful of key differences between the banking sector results and the global survey results, which include data from all industries.
Cost reduction is slightly more prevalent in banking than globally across industriesIn the banking sector, 72% of the surveyed companies plan to undertake cost reduction initiatives over the next 24 months, slightly higher than the global average across industries (71%). Similarly, the percentage of banks with cost reduction targets of 10% or higher is somewhat above the
global average (71% in banking versus 68% globally across industries). Failure rates in banking are also similar to those of the global respondent pool, with 80% of banks failing to fully meet their cost reduction targets (versus 81% globally) (see figure 1).
Figure 1. Cost reduction trends
Banks are more positive than average about growthOver the past 24 months, 89% of banking respondents had a positive revenue outlook—higher than the global average across all industries (86%). Similarly, for the next 24 months,
the banking sector’s revenue outlook is even more positive (90%) than the global average (86%) (see figure 2).

The save-to-transform mindset is even more prevalent in banking than globallyThe survey results indicate that the save-to-transform mindset is even more prevalent in banking than globally across industries. This cost management philosophy is characterized by a simultaneous strategic focus on sales growth, cost reduction, product profitability, technology implementation, and digital enablement. Relative to the
global averages across industries, banking respondents report higher priority levels in all of those areas: cost (+7 percentage points), digital enablement (+6 percentage points), profitability (+6 percentage points), technology (+4 percentage points), and growth (+3 percentage points) (see figure 3).
Figure 3. Strategic priorities (next 24 months)
Expected implementation rates are higher than average for automation and cloud technologiesIn the banking sector, implementation rates for digital technology over the next 24 months are expected to be slightly higher than the global averages across industries for
automation (+3%) and cloud solutions (+4%), but lower for cognitive technologies (-5%) and business intelligence (-12%) (see figure 4).

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Survey findings1 Cybersecurity is the top risk among banking respondents, followed by digital disruption and credit risks; cybersecurity and
digital disruption are also the two top-rated risks globally across industries.2 Credit risks are seen as a bigger threat in banking (61%) than globally (57%).3 New market entrants are seen as a bigger threat globally (57%) than in banking (53%).
Region-specific findingsA United States – Cybersecurity concerns are the top-rated external risk in the United States (88%), far higher than in other
regions; commodity price fluctuations are the lowest-rated external risk in the United States (28%) and in all regions.B Latin America – Macroeconomic concerns are the leading risk only in Latin America (57%); cybersecurity is the is the
lowest-rated external risk in Latin America (33%), much lower than in other regions.C Europe – European banks have a relatively high level of concern about external risks across the board, with the two
top-rated risks being political climate (72%) and digital disruption (72%), and the lowest-rated risk being macroeconomic concerns (57%).
D Asia Pacific – Unlike in other regions, commodity price fluctuations are the top-rated external risk in Asia Pacific (75%), followed by cybersecurity concerns (70%); new market entrants are the lowest-rated risk (55%).
Cybersecurity is the top external riskIn banking, cybersecurity is the top-rated external risk (64%), especially in the United States where it is rated far higher
than any other risk (88%). Digital disruption and credit risks are tied for second, both at 61% (see figure 14).

Survey findings1 Talent (23%) and information systems (23%) are the two top-rated internal risks for the banking sector.2 Those same two risks top the list globally across industries, with talent at 25% and information systems at 26%.3 For all internal risks, ratings by banking respondents are slightly lower than the global averages across industries.
Region-specific findingsA United States – Unlike in Europe and Asia Pacific, lack of strategic plans/execution is the lowest-rated internal risk
for banking respondents in the United States (4%); all other internal risks in the United States are rated almost equally (16%–20%).
B Latin America – Talent and reliability/functionality of information systems, which are the two top-rated risks globally and in banking overall, were not cited by any banks in Latin America; for LATAM banks, lack of controls (19%) is the top-rated internal risk.
C Europe – European banks generally cite higher levels of internal risk than do their counterparts in other regions; reliability/functionality of information systems is the top-rated internal risk (43%, the highest rating for any internal risk in any region); lack of controls is the lowest-rated (19%).
D Asia Pacific – The two top-rated internal risks in Asia Pacific are talent (40%) and lack of strategic plans/execution (35%); reliability and functionality of information systems is the lowest-rated risk in Asia Pacific (10%), which is very different than the global and overall banking results.
Talent and information systems are the top internal risksIn banking, the top internal risks are recruitment, development, and retention of talent (23%) and reliability and functionality of information systems (23%). Internal
risk ratings by banking respondents from Europe and Asia Pacific were generally higher than elsewhere, especially for information systems and talent (see figure 15).

Survey findings1 The three top-rated strategic priorities for banking respondents over the past 24 months were product profitability (81%),
sales growth (79%), and digital enablement (78%); globally, sales growth (73%), product profitability (73%), and technology implementation (73%) topped the list.
2 Over the next 24 months, the two top-rated strategic priorities in banking and globally across industries are product profitability and technology implementation.
3 In banking, the ratings increase significantly from the past 24 months to the next 24 months for cost reduction (+6 percentage points) and technology implementation (+5 percentage points).
Strategic priorities align with save-to-transformThe save-to-transform cost management approach uses cost reduction to fund investments in growth and transformational digital technologies, while in turn using many of those same digital technologies to boost the efficiency and effectiveness of cost reduction programs. In banking, the top-rated strategic priorities over the next
24 months are product profitability (79%) and technology implementation (77%), followed very closely by sales growth (75%), cost reduction (75%), and digital enablement (75%). This broad set of balanced priorities typifies the save-to-transform mindset (see figure 16).

Strategic priorities vary significantly by regionStrategic priorities for cost reduction vary significantly by region but are fairly consistent over time. Europe’s priorities
over the next 24 months are generally the most consistent with a save-to-transform mindset (see figure 17).

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Survey findings1 In banking and globally across industries, the four top-rated cost reduction drivers over the past 24 months were
unchanged. Regulatory structure, investment in growth areas, intensified competition, and international growth opportunities.
2 Over the next 24 months, the two top-rated cost reduction drivers in banking and globally across industries are investment in growth areas and intensified competition.
3 In banking, the focus on growth investment is expected to increase by 8 percentage points from the past 24 months to the next 24 months.
Growth investment is expected to be the top cost reduction driverOver the next 24 months, the top driver for cost reduction in banking is required investment in growth areas (72%). That is a significant jump from the past 24 months, when growth investment (at 64%) was in a virtual four-way tie with
changed regulatory structure (65%), intensified competition (64%), and increased international growth opportunities (65%) (see figure 18).

Capability development patterns in banking resemble the global patterns across industriesCapability development is fairly similar for the banking sector and global respondent pool. Global respondents slightly favor automation (48% across industries versus 44% in
banking), while banking respondents slightly favor cognitive and artificial intelligence (46% versus 42% globally across industries) (see figure 20).
Figure 20. Capabilities developed over the past 24 months
Survey findings1 In banking, the most commonly developed capabilities are cognitive/AI (46%) and automation (44%).2 Globally across industries, the most commonly developed capabilities are automation (48%), cognitive/AI (42%), ERP
infrastructure (41%), and new policies/procedures (41%).3 Zero-based budgeting (ZBB) continues to be the least developed capability in banking (6%), even lower than the global
average across industries (12%).
Region-specific findingsA United States – The most commonly developed capabilities in banking are new policies/procedures (48%) and improved
processes for forecasting, budgeting, and reporting (44%); compared to other regions, the United States has the lowest percentage of banking respondents who developed cognitive solutions (28%).
B Latin America – ERP infrastructure is the most commonly developed capability (48%), followed by automation (33%).C Europe – Cognitive technologies are most commonly developed capability (60%), higher than the overall average for banks
(46%) and the global average across industries (42%).D Asia Pacific – APAC respondents generally reported the highest levels of developed capabilities, with new policies/
procedures being the most commonly developed (55%); relative to other regions, Asia Pacific reported the highest levels of ZBB implementation (15%).

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Tactical and strategic cost actions are balanced in bankingOver the past 24 months, the banking sector has focused almost equally on strategic and tactical cost actions. This differs a bit from the global pattern across industries, which was somewhat more tactical in focus (see figure 21).
Tactical actions tend to produce incremental improvements and relatively small cost savings, whereas strategic actions have a much broader and deeper impact. Examples of strategic actions include: centralizing business activities (action 1 in the chart); structurally reconfiguring the business (action 2); and outsourcing/offshoring (action 3).
Figure 21. Implemented cost reduction actions over the past 24 months
Survey findings1 The three top-rated cost reduction actions implemented in banking over the past 24 months were increased centralization
(39%), streamlined organization structure (39%), and improved policy compliance (39%).2 Similar to banking, two of the three top-rated actions implemented globally across industries are streamlined organization
structure (36%) and improved policy compliance (37%).3 Banks have focused almost equally on strategic and tactical cost actions—similar to the global pattern across industries,
but generally with higher levels of implementation.
Region-specific findingsA United States – The most implemented cost actions are increased centralization (48%) and streamlined organization
structure (48%), both of which have the highest implementation ratings for any cost actions in any region; the least implemented cost actions are reduced external spend (24%) and aligned incentives (24%).
B Latin America – The most implemented cost action is changed business configuration (43%); the least implemented is automation/cognitive technologies (14%), which has the lowest implementation level for any cost action in any region.
C Europe – European banks had relatively high levels of implementation across all cost actions; the most implemented actions were improved policy compliance (45%) and automation/cognitive technologies (45%); the least implemented was streamlined business processes (32%).
D Asia Pacific – The most implemented cost action was streamlined business processes (40%); the least implemented was changed business configuration (15%).

Implementation challenges are the top barrierImplementation challenges are the top barrier to successful cost reduction both in banking (62%) and globally across industries (65%). On average, APAC banks rate the barriers to cost reduction much more highly than their counterparts
in other regions, while US banks are at the opposite end of the spectrum and seem much less concerned about barriers (see figure 23).
Figure 23. Barriers to successful cost reduction
Survey findings1 In banking, the three top-rated barriers to successful cost reduction are implementation challenges (62%),
weak/unclear business case (59%), and poorly designed reporting/tracking (59%).2 The three top-rated barriers globally across industries are implementation challenges (65%), lack of an effective
ERP system (62%), and erosion of savings (61%).3 Lack of an effective ERP system is a much less common barrier in banking than globally across industries
(-7 percentage points).
Region-specific findingsA United States – On average, US banks rate the barriers to cost reduction far lower than do their counterparts in other
regions; their top-rated barriers are poorly designed reporting/tracking (44%) and implementation challenges (44%); their lowest-rated barrier is erosion of savings (28%).
B Latin America – The top-rated barriers are lack of an effective ERP system (62%) and implementation challenges (62%); the lowest-rated barrier is lack of understanding/acceptance of the solution (38%).
C Europe – European banking respondents rate all the barriers almost equally; the highest-rated is erosion of savings (64%); the lowest-rated is lack of understanding/acceptance of the solution (57%).
D Asia Pacific – On average, APAC banks rate the barriers to cost reduction significantly higher than do their counterparts in other regions; the top-rated barriers are weak/unclear business case (85%) and implementation challenges (80%).

Cost management maturity in banking resembles the global average across industriesOverall cost management maturity levels in banking are close to the global averages across industries. In particular, the percentage of banks that rate themselves high maturity (34%) nearly matches the global average (35%). However,
maturity ratings vary widely by region. For example, only 5% of LATAM banks rate themselves high maturity, a figure that is much lower than the 49% of European banks that consider themselves high maturity (see figure 25).

Survey findings1 In banking, the most actively implemented technologies are expected to be automation (64%) and cognitive (60%); the
technology expected to be least actively implemented is cloud (49%).2 As in banking, the technologies expected to be most actively implemented globally across industries are automation (62%)
and cognitive (63%).3 Implementation expectations for business intelligence are 7 percentage points higher globally across industries than in
banking.
Region-specific findingsA United States – Similar to the overall banking and global results, the technologies expected to be most actively
implemented over the next 24 months in the United States are automation (56%) and cognitive (56%), followed by business intelligence (44%) and cloud (44%).
B Latin America –On average, LATAM banks expect the highest levels of implementation activity over the next 24 months compared to other regions; automation is highest (90%); business intelligence is lowest (52%).
C Europe – The most actively implemented technology in Europe is expected to be automation (55%); the least actively implemented technology is expected to be cloud (40%).
D Asia Pacific – Automation, cognitive, and business intelligence are all expected to have equal levels of implementation activity over the next 24 months (all 65%); cloud is expected to be the least actively implemented technology (55%).
High levels of technology implementation are expectedIn the banking sector, the technologies expected to be most actively implemented over the next 24 months are automation (64%) and cognitive (60%); the technology
expected to be least actively implemented is cloud (49%), most likely because current implementation levels for cloud are already very high (see figure 29).

Save-to-transform as a catalyst for embracing digital disruption | Deloitte’s Second Biennial Global Cost Survey: Cost management practices and trends in the banking sector
Cost management practices and approaches have grown increasingly sophisticated over time, with digital solutions—although still maturing—now representing the most advanced level of cost management. Companies that relied on more traditional cost management methods in the past are now finding that digital solutions can open the door to a whole new level of savings—as well as enable new and more innovative business models.
The rise of digital technologies and innovations is also contributing to a shift in how banks around the world approach cost management, with the save-to-grow mindset from 2017 steadily expanding into a save-to-transform mindset where investments in digital enablement and transformational technologies play a key role.

Save-to-growIn the recent past, most banks were firmly grounded in save-to-grow mode. Cost and growth were the main business levers, with talent (including capabilities) as another key component. In this mode, cost reduction is a high priority,
with cost savings used to fund growth initiatives and strategic investments that support a differentiated business strategy (see figure 32).

Save-to-transformNow, many banks are moving into save-to-transform mode, with the save-to-grow mindset expanding to include a strong focus on digital enablement and technologies that can transform a business and help it capitalize on the vast
opportunities in an increasingly digital world. Shifting into save-to-transform mode means that in addition to cost, growth, talent, and liquidity, technology is also a high priority (see figure 33).
Figure 33. Save-to-grow expands into save-to-transform
Save-to-transform not only helps a bank capitalize on digital opportunities, it can also position the business to withstand potential adversity that may be on the horizon–such as an
economic downturn or credit crisis–by using the power of digital solutions as the key to unlock new levels of cost savings, efficiency, and financial performance.

ConclusionBanks around the world continue to view cost management as a high priority, and most have achieved admirable levels of operating efficiency. Yet, in spite of their ongoing efforts, too many remain mired in middle-of-the-pack performance. Reaching the next level will require greater focus on strategic cost actions, as well as increased adoption of breakthrough technologies such as automation, cognitive/AI, and business intelligence. These digital innovations have the potential to generate the substantial cost savings necessary to fund and implement business improvements that are not only for growth but transformational for the existing business model.
