The Compliance programme set up by Microsoft was born from this. After the migration in December 2013, other Cloud initiatives quickly emerged. A Cloud governance was implemented whereby the Cloud Enablement Forum plays a pivotal role.
The experts in this mandatory advisory body emanate from various business, risk and IT disciplines and guide each Cloud case from cradle to grave. The Cloud is now clearly embedded in KBC’s strategy: Cloud alternatives have to be explored for each business case and there is a clear trend to use more SaaS & PaaS solutions, also for own (preferably Cloud native) development. The acquired Cloud experience is seen as a critical success factor in order to achieve KBC’s ambition to be a leading innovative, digital financial player.
