Read MoreHide Full Article
Infosys' (INFY - Free Report) wholly-owned subsidiary, Finacle, has been chosen as the new digital transformation partner by Nigeria's Guaranty Trust Bank (“GTBank”). Notably, GTBank is set to initiate its multi-country digital transformation program using the Finacle Digital Banking Suite.
Finacle positions itself as the foremost provider of comprehensive digital banking solutions, catering to core banking, digital engagement, lending, payments, cash management and a wide array of other services. Additionally, it meets the artificial intelligence and blockchain needs of financial institutions.
GTBank, aiming to enhance its digitization and automation efforts while achieving cost-efficiency, chose Finacle due to its well-established track record in retail, wealth and corporate banking. The Finacle Digital Banking Suite will utilize Finacle's Cloud Native and API-Driven features, preparing GTBank for seamless integration with its ecosystem partners.
GTB Deal to Boost Infosys’ Financial Services Business
Shares of Infosys have declined 1.5% year to date against the Computer and Technology Sector’s rise of 34.7% in the same time frame.
