Challenge
Axis Securities wanted to offer a seamless trading experience on mobile platforms.
Realizing that most of its customers in the retail investment space belonged to the digitally-empowered Gen Y, Axis Securities wanted to create an integrated mobile-based platform with a feature-rich front end and intuitive user interface. To optimize costs, the Indian retail banking major needed a solution that could easily be retrofitted on to the existing IT infrastructure. In a strategic move to reduce time to market, the company decided to partner with TCS BaNCS to deploy an off-the-shelf digital trading solution capable of delivering personalized, compelling customer experiences.
