展望未来,中国证券业IT解决方案市场仍有巨大的增长空间,这是因为中国证券业科技投入仍有巨大的增长空间。原因有三:第一,中国多层次资本市场的建设,将为中国证券IT市场带来巨大的机会。第二,中国证券业数字化转型正处于全面加速阶段,数字化转型将逐步从零售经纪业务扩展到机构业务、资产管理、投资银行、自营投资、中后台等多个领域。第三,中国证券业IT投入目前仍处于较低水平。2021年中国证券公司IT投入总额为303.55亿元,但是2021年摩根士丹利和高盛单个公司的IT投入就高达198亿和100亿元人民币,而中资十大券商除华泰外,其他券商的平均投入均在12亿元左右。人力层面,国际一流券商的IT员工数在1-2万人,IT员工占比约为20-30%,中资十大券商平均IT员工数1200人,IT员工占比重低于10%。资金投入及团队建设较国际一流差距较为明显。
“中国证券业IT解决方案市场正站在一个全新的历史起点上。一方面,中国证券市场正在经历自诞生30年来最剧烈的变革,这将重塑整个市场,从而影响到与证券市场发展相关的各个方面。另一方面,证券业数字化转型正带来更多全新的市场机会。未来3-5年,在证券业IT解决方案的基石领域核心交易系统,分布式低时延技术是否会重构市场格局,值得持续关注。”——IDC中国金融行业研究经理温泉表示。
“近两年来,证券业IT解决方案向平台化演进的趋势愈加显现。未来,这将为证券业数字化转型深度赋能。传统架构的复杂性和高投入在一定程度上使得证券行业IT技术债积累较高,迭代更新较为缓慢。但是随着如嵌入式服务等业务模式创新所带来的对于云原生、AI/ML等新兴技术的需求将会影响证券行业技术发展的进程和方向。”——IDC中国金融行业研究总监高飞表示。
...在此背景下,农村数字金融的探索已经开始,破解传统农村金融难题的实践也已经开始。
"中国农村数字金融正在进入全新的发展阶段。不同于2014年以后P2P平台、互联网公司对农村金融的探索,这一阶段的主要驱动因素有政策支持、农村数字基础设施的建设、数字技术的应用、数据的共享等。这一阶段的发展,目前尚处于初步的探索期。同时,有两方面的新趋势值得关注:其一,农村数字金融的发展,政策驱动是主因,但在政策驱动的背后,是有经济自然发展规律和技术进步支撑的,符合农业农村的发展需求。其二,未来中国农村数字金融的发展有可能逐渐淡化'公益'和'扶贫'的色彩,而是成为商业可持续的业务。中国农业GDP占比巨大、农村人口基数庞大。在金融科技的产业应用方向中,农业场景兼具广阔的市场空间与强大的监管助力,极具拓展价值,新的商业模式或带来更强盈利弹性。但是同时需要指出的是,中国农村数字金融的繁荣发展,未来是建立在中国农村各项制度改革的基础之上的。只有制度改革使得生产力释放,农村数字金融的商业可持续才有根基。"——IDC中国金融行业研究部研究经理温泉表示。
