Financial services has made one of the most successful pivots to hybrid operations. Prior to the pandemic, less than a third of employers had a majority of their employees working from home at least once a week – now that number has doubled with nearly 70% of employers expecting 60% of their workforce to work from home at least 1 day per week—and over half of financial services CFOs saying they plan to make remote work permanent for roles that allow it.1 However, in 2023, 64% of global office space is still underutilized 2.
Here's the thing: the vast majority of financial services firms have adopted no new technology to power their strategic shift to permanent hybrid operations. It should come as no surprise, then that only 24% of organizations feel they are ready to develop the right hybrid workplace model, despite the fact that 87% of the respondents say doing so is important or very important to their organization's success.3
Powerfully, the Maptician 2023 white paper, Successful Hoteling Strategies for Financial Services Firms: A Tech-Driven Approach, shows how technology plays a vital role in the success of hybrid operations for financial services firms.
