Tomorrow’s channels for corporate customers A
s both local and multi-national organizations continue to scale up at a tremendous pace, banks serving these enterprises have had to innovate equally fast to help their rapidly growing clients manage their cash efficiently, minimize real-time risk, and forecast cash positions accurately. Simultaneously, banks have had to deal with competitive pressures that necessitate building operational efficiencies, reducing time to market for new product and service launches and building long term client relationships. The internet, one of banking’s key channels, has empowered banks to marry these demands by delivering next generation Internet banking services to corporates. However, to truly tap the power of this channel, banks need an e-banking solution that provides corporate customers instant, real-time and unified access to banking relationships along with intelligent insights into liquidity positions that can drive business profitability.
