 |
| In the Financial Institutions
sector, specific and constantly evolving factors which
affect the orientation of business need to be considered:
|
| |
 |
 |
 |
| |
 |
The changing perspective
of the financial market, which brings with it a
client-oriented business model. Banking is
prioritising its attention in this area and in the
integrated
management of personalised services distribution
channels. |
| |
|
|
| |
 |
Changes in the financial
needs of the public, who prefer services to
products. Banking institutions are significantly
changing their Front Offices in this direction. |
| |
|
|
| |
 |
The incorporation of new
technologies to facilitate the development and
diversification of services, channels and
relations. The key factors of the most significant
change in banking are Web-based developments,
constant and accelerated improvements in
processing costs, information storage and
transfer, and the demand for the required levels
of security. |
|
| |
| Fihoca's collaboration with Financial
Institutions, Banks and Savings Banks, both medium sized
and large groups, is a benchmark for our clients. |
| |
| We can provide solutions
to both the global problems of institutions and to the
departmental requirements of large organisations. |
