“Infosys Finacle has strong solution credentials, a proven track record of empowering leading banks in Bangladesh, and experience of working with global financial institutions.”
According to Infosys, the bank is now enabled for “massive scalability at minimal cost” and can onboard new customers and open accounts within 15 minutes.
