Financial Services biometric implementations will be
attributable to new transactional and percentage-based
model, as biometrics are used to secure and provide
non-repudiation for medium to high end financial
transactions. Furthermore, this revenue will likely be
generated by non-biometric companies with a broad enough
reach to enable transactional biometric infrastructures
for financial institutions.
Banking and financial services represent enormous growth
areas for biometric technology, with many deployments
currently functioning and pilot projects announced
frequently. The varied authentication requirements of
financial institutions create opportunities for diverse
implementations for both customer-facing and
employee-facing authentication. Biometrics will not only
secure and improve existing services but may enable new,
high-value remote services which would not be possible without biometrics.
