Haragopal M, Global Head- Finacle, Infosys:
"Complexity of business operations and need for technology modernization are amongst the biggest hurdles to accelerate growth today. Leveraging the componentized nature of Finacle 11E, banks can choose to deploy a solution in phases based on business priorities. This ensures simplified transformation journey and faster realization of modernization benefits."
Robert Hunt, Senior Research Director, CEB TowerGroup:
"Large banks are reluctant to undertake core modernization projects due to the risks and complexity of the effort. By componentizing their products, core vendors are providing banks with the flexibility needed to develop phased implementation plans that reduce this risk. Moreover, componentization allows banks to prioritize their efforts, improving the business case for core modernization by focusing on functions that provide the greatest short term benefits".
Ali Sajwani, Chief Information Officer, Emirates NBD:
"Finacle Core Banking Solution has been powering our operations since 2009. As a long term partner, Finacle has helped us grow both organically and inorganically. It is encouraging to see Infosys constantly evolving their solution to meet growing needs of banks for simplification and easy modernization. We are currently rolling out their new liquidity management solution to offer tailor-made cash management products to our corporate and SME clients."
Peter Schlebusch, Chief Executive of Personal & Business Banking, Standard Bank:
"Infosys has been our partner in business transformation for over 3 years now. Today, we run Finacle solutions in five countries and have plans to expand it to other territories to achieve higher operational efficiencies and faster growth. We are glad that Infosys continues to invest in the solution and now with Finacle 11E are bringing out capabilities which will help banks to simplify their operations
and deliver superior customer experience."
