Looking ahead to 2025, technology is set to transform multiple sectors. A key trend is the evolution of AI Security Posture Management (AISPM), with emerging agentic cybersecurity solutions that are increasingly automating threat detection and response. For example, on March 24, 2025, Microsoft announced plans to integrate AI agents into its security tools, aiming to reduce repetitive tasks and address the cybersecurity workforce gap.
Digital finance is also evolving with the expansion of pay-by-bank services and real-time payment capabilities. India's Axis Bank, in partnership with J.P. Morgan, launched a 24/7 U.S. dollar payment service on March 27, 2025, enabling seamless cross-border transactions and offering significant cost and fraud reduction benefits. Meanwhile, multimodal AI is expected to revolutionize customer service in banking, and the UK's ongoing broadband connectivity improvements will further support the nation’s digital economy.
