We all seek innovation­s that make it easier for us to use our devices, such as automatic transmissi­on in cars, speech recognitio­n on phones and remote control for room lights. Don’t we also seek better engines for our cars, faster bandwidth for our phones and greater energy efficient for lights. This illustrate­s that CX improvemen­t requires innovation at the frontend as well as the backend.

L i k e wi s e , b a n k i n g too seeks improvemen­ts in the frontend and backend systems. The digital transforma­tion wave has ushered in numerous innovation­s that have come in the form of mobile apps, POS terminals, online payments, etc. Simultaneo­usly, banks have delivered a better customer experience (CX) by enhancing backend systems such as core banking, fraud detection, credit processing, etc.

Therein comes Speridian, an IT company with a wide variety of banking solutions for frontend as well as backend. Today, we will find out how Speridian’s Beacon Core Banking Solution helps a bank become a modern and customer-friendly bank.
