🙌We kicked off CBA live 2026 with an incredible start—a polished booth and a full-house speaking session “From Legacy Core to Agentic Advantage: Rewiring Consumer Banking for Growth”. During the session, Ranga Sathia shared a forward-looking perspective on the evolution from customer-centric banking to agentic banking, and why winning in the agent era doesn’t require a costly core rip-and-replace strategy. Srinivas Ramadath from McKinsey & Company then explored key AI trends reshaping the banking landscape, such as: • AI’s impact spans a broad spectrum across operations and customer engagement • While banks can achieve 15–20% cost efficiencies, they may also see up to 10% of value pools shift as AI agents emerge as a new channel He also highlighted the importance of a “rewire” strategy—rethinking how humans and AI agents collaborate, preparing talent for this shift, and ensuring the right data foundation is in place. As emphasized, success with AI depends not just on technology, but on strong data, and effective change management. The final part of the session featured a dynamic panel discussion with Ranga, Srinivas, and Aubrey Hawes, covering: • The advantages of a full-stack approach • AI-driven data management • Real-world retail banking use cases • How leading banks are successfully navigating this transformation One key takeaway: the idea that “50% of banks have their data ready” may be overly optimistic—there’s still significant work ahead for many institutions. 🔆If you’d like to continue the conversation, stop by Oracle Booth 213—we’d love to connect. #cbalive #banking #agenticAI Robin Smith Nafisul Hasan Mark Offenbach Ted Westhelle Ruxandra Aldea Mark Atherton Brian Tom Marieta Proenca Shirin Esfandiari Rose Spicer Amelia Gardner
