Bank of Makati Implements Infosys Finacle to Transform Customer Experience and Accelerate Growth

Manila, Philippines & Bangalore – India, October 28, 2014: Bank of Makati, Inc. (BMI), which recently transitioned into a savings bank, has implemented the Infosys Finacle core banking solution to transform customer experience and drive growth, at reduced costs. This deployment will enable BMI to better promote its business and housing loan products nationwide, and also aggressively expand its customer base and loan volumes. It will also help BMI to procure business from the large pool of motorcycle loan borrowers by issuing special ATM cards, thereby converting them into retail banking customers.

BMI was the Philippines’ largest rural bank before it became a savings bank. It is also the leading provider of motorcycle loans in the country. The transformation from the old legacy system to the Infosys Finacle Core Banking Solution began in September last year, and the solution was taken live on June 1, 2014.

Highlights

• Infosys Finacle replaces BMI’s legacy platform with a robust automated system that can scale up to meet growing business volumes
• The new solution has improved automation and operational efficiency in daily transactions and reduced clearing processing time from four hours to less than 45 minutes
• Daily processes, such as record-keeping, end-of-day processing of transactions, clearing, settlement, and reconciliation, which consumed several hours previously, are now handled locally at each branch in less than 15 minutes
• The implementation has lowered the Total Cost of Operations by capitalizing on the bank’s existing technology investments and minimizing additional investments
• The solution’s ability to operate in a Linux-based environment allows BMI the flexibility to add new or transition existing IT infrastructure. This flexibility has also helped improve the bank’s time-to-market for new products. BMI can now create customized offerings and easily address new business segments, such as home and small business loans
