John Ross, President and CEO, Central Bank, commented, “When the decision was made to modernize our core as part of a long-term strategy, we looked extensively for a true partner. Given our shared commitment to technology and its role in the customer experience, TCS, with its TCS BaNCS product suite, was a natural choice for Central Bank.”

The online account opening module of TCS BaNCS will optimize Central Bank’s customer acquisition processes, improve productivity, and help them gain real-time insights into customer relationships. It will also accelerate the process for the Central Bank to create and deploy products that meet its customers’ evolving needs.

Central Bank's adoption of TCS BaNCS' multi-bank, multi-entity capabilities and extensive API library positions it for accelerated integration of new banking partners, facilitating both organic and acquisition-led growth strategies.
