The Bank said it wants to work closer with FinTech firms – disruptive businesses at the forefront of payment technology – to boost areas such as data analysis and cyber security.
The move will include the launch of a FinTech Accelerator, where it will work with tech companies to find digital solutions to the challenges it faces.
