In today’s rapidly evolving world, technological advancements not only create commercial value but also have the power to bring about significant positive changes in society. However, there are still 1.7 billion people worldwide who lack access to financial services.

Embracing the ethos of “Tech for All,” Huawei, an ICT technology company, has made great strides in promoting financial inclusion and digital transformation.

With its solutions, the company has already served 380 million people across more than 60 countries, empowering individuals with access to essential financial services.

Huawei’s Experience and Global Practices in the financial industry

Huawei has been actively involved in the financial industry, leveraging its expertise and technological advancements to support the digital transformation efforts of its customers.

As the financial services landscape undergoes significant changes, there is a noticeable shift toward intelligence and mobility. Traditional transactions are being replaced by digital engagement, ushering in a new era of convenience and accessibility.

Recognizing the importance of adapting to this evolving landscape, Huawei has taken proactive steps to support its customers in their digital transformation journey.

Through collaborative efforts with partners, Huawei has successfully harnessed the power of abundant ICT solutions. This includes leveraging cloud-based applications and infrastructure, as well as cloud infrastructure itself. This strategic approach has enabled customers to build simplified architecture, agile intelligence, ultimate experience, and business innovation.

Furthermore, Huawei has facilitated the modernization of core applications by leveraging reliable infrastructure, cloud solutions, GaussDB, and data migration techniques, ” said  Danping Song, President of Global Ecosystem Cooperation, Digital Finance BU, Huawei.

One example is its collaboration with the Postal Savings Bank of China, where Huawei played a pivotal role in building a cloud-native core system that now caters to the needs of over 650 million retail users.

The success of Huawei’s endeavors has also earned them recognition from their customers. DBS, Singapore’s largest bank, awarded Huawei the Most Valued Technology Partner of the Year 2020, a distinction received among 64 technology partners.

Huawei’s Core Capabilities and Values in the financial industry

With an investment of 140.9 billion yuan (S$26.72 billion) in research and development, Huawei has developed robust root technologies, core products, and digital solutions.

“This continuous innovation enables the company to support global financial customers in meeting their challenges and accelerating their transformation,” said  Danping Song.

Leveraging its technical advantages, Huawei provides targeted end-to-end solutions to meet the specific needs of financial customers. By focusing on root technologies and infrastructure products, Huawei collaborates with application partners to build comprehensive solutions for the financial industry.

Danping Song highlighted that the Financial Partner Go Global Program (FPGGP) further expands Huawei’s capabilities and values by fostering collaboration with partners to serve financial customers globally.

Huawei’s emphasis on ecosystem development and collaboration is demonstrated by the launch of the FFPGGP in June 3, 2021. This program serves as a unifying force, bringing together 25 partners in a collective effort to serve global financial customers in conjunction with Huawei.

FPGGP members collaborate in various aspects, including policies and regulations, application scenarios, technical architectures, operational support, and market promotion. This collaborative approach enables the creation and sharing of global opportunities, fostering innovation and growth within the financial industry.

Through the FPGGP, Huawei and its partners are at the forefront of creating cutting-edge solutions that address the evolving needs of the industry.

Overcoming challenges

Implementing the program has presented its own set of challenges. However, with Huawei’s advanced technology and the best practices of Financial Partner Go Global Program partners, cutting-edge solutions have been jointly developed and recognized by customers.

“The company recognizes the importance of understanding local markets and establishing trust with a broader customer base to serve even more customers,” said Danping Song.

This exclusive event is set to gather industry heads, leaders, experts, scholars, and practitioners from the global financial industry under one roof.

Plans and growing with local partners in the Asia Pacific

As Huawei looks ahead to the future, one of its primary goals is to expand the reach of its Financial Partner Go Global Program by forming strategic partnerships with local entities in the Asia Pacific region.

These partnerships include business consulting, technical consulting, sales, integration implementation, and management service providers.

The inclusion of local partners is crucial as they possess extensive knowledge of their respective markets and have established strong trust and cooperation mechanisms with customers.

Huawei’s commitment to collaboration and mutual success is reflected in its efforts to deliver tailored solutions and services that facilitate the digital transformation journeys of financial institutions. This collaborative approach aims to drive the overall digitalization of the Asian-Pacific region’s financial industry.

As a demonstration of Huawei’s commitment to collaboration, establishing the Asia-Pacific Digital Finance Partner Alliance stands as a testament to its philosophy of openness, sharing, cooperation, and win-win scenarios. This alliance fosters collaboration and innovation among financial industry stakeholders, aiming to create a thriving ecosystem that propels digital transformation.
