Q.5
CASE STUDY:
ABN AMRO Bank started its India operations and like other foreign
multinational banks, focused primarily on wholesale banking, to service
top-tier corporate clients. This changed in the 1990s, when strategic
business imperatives and an increased level of competition both from
domestic and multinational banks in India led the bank to look at retail
banking as a key area for growth. In an effort to strengthen
its retail banking presence, ABN AMRO acquired Bank of America?s
retail banking operations in India. As part of the acquisition, the bank
migrated to Bank of America?s technology infrastructure, which was based
on ICBS solution from Fiserv, running on an IBM AS/400 platform.
However, the existing solution was not flexible enough to meet the
requirements of a competitive consumer banking environment, where
offering a range of products and services to customers across multiple
delivery channels is critical. With frequent maintenance requirements, the
platform was also proving to be a drain on the bank?s resources. At the
same time, the focus at the bank was on reduction of TCO (Total Cost of
Ownership) and therefore, a mere upgrade to a newer version of the
existing, aging system would not have met the objective. As a result, the
bank decided to replace the legacy system with a new generation, robust
core banking solution.
The cornerstone of a successful consumer banking strategy is to have a
technology platform that can offer anytime, anywhere banking through
multiple delivery channels like the Internet, ATM, mobiles and call
centers. ABN AMRO Bank required a platform that could easily support
existing delivery channels and add new ones, while seamlessly integrating
them to provide a relationship view of customers? interactions across all
delivery channels.
Being a multinational bank, ABN AMRO Bank was also keen to adopt
best practices being followed in other countries, such as the ability to roll
out new products and services in line with domestic market requirements.
Equally important was the need to roll out these customizations rapidly so
as to gain critical time-to-market advantage. This could only be achieved
by deploying a platform that was flexible and easily extensible. After
intense discussions and evaluation, ABN AMRO chose Finacle, the new-
generation universal banking solution from Infosys, to address its needs in
core banking and consumer ebanking
spaces.
