Quantum computing will gradually transform the financial sector, but the key will not be the technology itself, but rather who has access to its computing power. A small group of organisations will be able to gain competitive advantages in areas such as portfolio management or asset valuation, whilst risks such as reliance on standardised models, a lack of transparency and threats to cyber security will increase. Regulatory and technological preparedness will be crucial in the coming years.
