E – BANKING:
Around the world, banks are facing new challenges in their battle to compete successfully.
As ease of entry increases, competition to provide banking services will constantly grow and
change. Business and residential clients will be more independent in their selection of
services, especially with the creation of online banking services, where they can easily select
the packages best suited to their needs. Customer attraction and loyalty will be increasingly
hard-earned, while operational costs and time to market will need to be reduced and closely
controlled.
Need for e-commerce banking solutions
On top of these developments, the exploding volume and complexity of transactional data
that banks must manage and use effectively is straining the capabilities of many IT
infrastructures to operate profitably.
Increasingly, the goal of leading banking institutions is to offer the global market a
diversified range of financial products and services via a single e-commerce portal. Broadly
defined, e-commerce is all the transactional commerce conducted electronically between
businesses and other businesses (B2B), between businesses and their end-customers (B2C)
and within an enterprise, over the Internet, extranets and intranets.
To achieve and maintain an edge on its competition, a bank needs an open e-commerce
platform that can:
• Integrate new e-commerce applications with existing applications to optimize IT
investments and save on reprogramming and management costs
• Provide the power and scalability to handle multiple workloads, shift resources to match
changing workloads, handle unpredictable peaks, and grow with your business
• Provide rock-solid security and advanced services availability for transactions all the time,
around the world – absolute essentials for competitive banking
• Exploit the value of your customer and market data by deploying business intelligence (BI)
and customer relationship management (CRM) software to help you better anticipate,
understand and respond to customer wants and needs
•Unify your enterprise management chain with an open server platform that integrates
purchase and sales processes with information on customers and product offerings for more
timely, targeted and personalized customer service
• Integrate future technologies and new ways of doing business with customers.
