The AI Banking Revolution: How SAP, SAP Fioneer and Fixtra Empower Financial Institutions to Thrive by 2030

By  Mateusz  ·  2 minute read

The Future of Banking is Now

Retail and commercial banks are undergoing a digital revolution. According to recent research, 30% to 50% of banks may disappear by 2030 if they fail to modernize. This shift is fueled by two unstoppable forces: AI in banking and SAP BTP (Business Technology Platform). These innovations are revolutionizing operational models, reducing cost-to-income ratios, and redefining the customer experience.

Banks that harness AI and BTP technologies effectively can dramatically improve agility, efficiency, and growth. At the center of this transformation is Fixtra, a trusted partner in executing these complex, high-impact strategies.

Why Banks Must Act Now

Recent data from BCG reveals a looming $1 trillion realignment in global banking P&Ls by 2030. The pressure to adapt comes from multiple directions:

  • Customer mobility is accelerating: Over 80% of digital banking users also use fintech platforms.

  • Margins are shrinking: Rising compliance costs and interest rate pressures demand leaner operations.

  • Legacy systems are dragging performance: Banks stuck with outdated infrastructure face CIRs as high as 74%.

To survive and thrive, banks must embrace digital transformation in banking, led by SAP BTP and advanced AI tools for financial services.

SAP BTP - The Foundation for Intelligent, Scalable Banking

SAP Business Technology Platform offers a cloud-native, AI-powered, and composable architecture tailored for the needs of modern financial institutions. Key capabilities include:

  • AI and machine learning services for predictive analytics and smart decision-making

  • Event-driven architecture and composite APIs for real-time banking workflows

  • SAP Datasphere and Finance Data Suite (FDS) for unified, audit-proof financial data

  • Full integration with FPSL, TRBK, SAP Analytics Cloud, and S/4HANA Finance

Banks leveraging SAP BTP are achieving up to 50% cost reductions while accelerating product rollout and real-time compliance.

The Role of AI in Modern Banking

AI in banking is not just automating tasks—it is redefining how decisions are made and services are delivered. Highlights from SAP Fioneer’s 2025 roadmap include:
