Challenges Faced by Financial Institutions in Digital Banking Modernization

Traditional core banking systems are frequently outdated, making maintenance and updates complex and costly. Financial institutions struggle to introduce new features rapidly and remain competitive against digital-native rivals, limiting their ability to innovate and improve customer engagement without risking operational disruptions.

About the Client

A mid to large-sized financial institution (e.g., bank or credit union) aiming to modernize its core banking operations and enhance customer engagement through a flexible, scalable digital platform.

Goals for Developing an Engagement Banking Platform

  • Create a flexible, modular platform enabling banks to add new functionalities without significant disruption to existing systems.
  • Enhance customer engagement by providing a unified, customizable interface tailored to individual bank needs.
  • Support seamless integration with diverse transactional systems, including custom connectors where necessary.
  • Improve time-to-market for new banking features and services, fostering innovation.
  • Ensure platform scalability, security, and performance to handle increasing user demands and sensitive data.

Core Functional Capabilities of the Engagement Banking System

  • Modular architecture supporting multiple banking functions (retail, institutional, onboarding, wealth management).
  • Pre-built connectors for integration with transactional and core banking systems.
  • Custom API integration capabilities for bespoke client requirements.
  • Role-based user personalization to tailor platform experience.
  • Secure multi-channel communication, including mobile and web interfaces.
  • Real-time data synchronization and reliable transaction processing.

Technological Platforms and Architectural Preferences

Kubernetes for container orchestration
Cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Azure) for scalability and resilience
Docker for containerization
Spring Framework, Angular, and Swift for UI and backend development
Playwright for end-to-end testing
Kotlin and Java for system development

External Systems and Data Integration Requirements

  • Transactional banking systems via package connectors
  • Custom API endpoints for bespoke integrations with client systems
  • Security and compliance systems for data protection
  • External authentication and identity management services

Critical Non-Functional System Attributes

  • High availability and system uptime (aim for 99.9% uptime)
  • Scalable architecture supporting increased transaction volume
  • Robust security measures compliant with industry standards
  • Performance optimized for real-time data processing and low latency
  • Extensible design to accommodate future modules and integrations

Projected Business Benefits and Outcomes of the Platform Development

The platform is expected to enable financial institutions to deploy new products and features more rapidly, reducing time-to-market and operational costs. It will facilitate better customer engagement through personalized and integrated digital experiences, leading to increased customer satisfaction and retention. Enhanced scalability and security will position banks to handle growing transaction volumes and protect sensitive data, ultimately improving competitive positioning in the digital banking landscape.
