Technology is evolving fast and Synapsys ensures that DFCC Bank and other clients locally and overseas are at the forefront of innovation.”
Winning a Merit award, Vinnovate is an intermediate layer which enables multiple thirdparty systems to get connected with a banks’ core banking system with proper validation and security. With the rapidly changing technology environment today, banks have to offer real time transactions on customers’ fingertips with integration to many third-party systems while ensuring the expected security and compliance requirements.
Synapsys’ Octoplex solution was also received an award as a superior Meeting & Workflow Management Solution which enables users the access through cross-platform hardware devices (Apple, Android and Windows). It supports paperless business activities such as setting-up different functional committees, managing calendars & agendas, powerful workflow and maintaining a single updated document with version control. It provides simultaneous access for all participants to comment, approve and vote on documents. In fact, internal Board and management meetings at DFCC Bank are conducted through the Octoplex to review and transfer of information such as Board and Committee minutes.
RM on App also received a Merit award as a secure communication platform between Premier Customers and Relationship Managers at the bank and ensures quality customer engagement. DFCC Bank’s Premier GO app for its premier customers is supported by this application. It provides accurate and insightful market results while eliminating barriers in communication channels. RM on App enables bank’s premier customers the facilities of appointment scheduling and video calling with relationship managers, receiving financial updates notifications, access to exclusive premier offers, etc. The end result is measurable customer engagement resulting in continuous improvement.
