FINANCIAL INDUSTRIES NEED FOR COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY IN THE SEVENTIES,

Abstract

In light of (1) the difficulties in obtaining adequate personnel, (2) the higher pay rates that are required to get and hold people, and (3) the factors that make for continuing growth in volume, automation of the data processing activity becomes a prime need of the banking industry for the seventies. In both the banking and the securities transactions businesses in which the original emphasis had been on getting the customers, the role of servicing the mass customers has gained a new importance. In the decade we are now entering, automation in banking and financing will expand substantially. As a wider variety of services are performed by automated equipment in the banking and securities industries, more varied and more numerous software routines will be required to perform both the new services and the potential new ones that will be developed.
