The market capitalization on the world banking market reached USD 7.2 trillion, and on the digital banking market - more than USD 800 trillion. The average annual growth of 4% has long been a stable source of income for banks. The development of digital consumer lending and payment systems is also attracting non-banking players, who are expanding their influence in institutional business, which makes the corporate banking market dynamic. The profound change brought about by the open and interconnected corporate banking ecosystem is taking place in conditions of extreme change, zero interest rates and a surplus of money supply. Although some areas of the financial markets are less exposed to these significant shocks, it is impossible to protect them from development in an open ecosystem. These changes may even be slower or less pronounced in some services, such as structured lending, large corporate payments, but technological developments are also taking place. Working with 'full vaults', emerging FinTech competitors, the COVID-19 pandemic and the slower-than-expected recovery of global supply chains are all challenges that banks need to address and are the subject of this study.
