Speridian’s Beacon Core Banking Solution enables Indian bank to automate end-to-end operations

Client

Our client, a major Indian bank, became the first bank in the country to automate their Core Banking.  They did so by adopting Speridian’s Beacon Core Banking Solution (CBS).  This adoption helped change the landscape for Indian banking nationwide and our client is now the largest Urban Co-operative Bank in Kerala by business volume. 

Customer Situation

While a successful business, our client was struggling to manage day to day operations.  Encumbered by manual processes that used a variety of stand-alone systems, simply keeping the lights on was difficult.  Operations were expensive, reporting was problematic, and the constraints of keeping things afloat limited their ability to pursue growth opportunities.  They needed to automate their systems. 

Speridian’s Solution

The browser-based, centralized Beacon Core Banking Solution, which connects front-office activities with back-office systems, enabling real-time processing of key financial transactions eliminating redundant interfaces, and consolidating application services and components.  All 16 branches were migrated in a single step with both retail and corporate systems becoming operational during Go-Live.
