'banking software?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'chieftain wanting ai to develop' is the wordplay.
'wanting' is a deletion indicator (wanting can mean lacking).
'to develop' is an anagram indicator.
'chieftain' with 'ai' taken out is 'chieftn'.
'chieftn' with letters rearranged gives 'FINTECH'.
