of customers across all business lines. Without the elimination of disparate systems and user experiences across branch, online, call centers, ATM and VRU, it is impossible for your bank to provide consistent levels of customer service and drive clients to preferred lower cost delivery models. Core Banking & Integration Services The implementation of new software due to new point solutions or a change in core processing systemsrequires large systems integration efforts that can distract banks from their core business. With increases in bank acquisitions, many financial institutions have overtaxed internal resources. The ability to provide banks with supplemental project mangers, systems integrators and business process consultants can help you meet required deadlines. Compliance & Risk Management Banks are faced with an increasing number of regulatory compliance, operational risk, credit risk and fraud issues. The combined costs of regulatory compliance and losses surrounding fraud and loan have created the need for sophisticated yet cost effective solutions. The market offers banks many tools to meet these needs. We can help you choose the ones that work best with the risk profile of your institution and your available support team. Since these activities are non revenue generating, you need to achieve compliance and minimize risk at the lowest possible cost. By using a mature global delivery model which provides domain expertise down to the keyboard, Capgemini can help.

the way we do it
To deliver our solution, Capgemini used iterative process development and leveraged our Rightshore model providing services from Accelerated Development Centers in Chicago and Bangalore, India. This global approach allowed us to fast track the project by leveraging technology skills to meet tight deadlines while still working in close partnership with KeyBank.
Maximizing Business Intelligence Investments Nearly all banks have made a significant investment in data warehouses or business intelligence centers. Most would agree that they have yet to maximize the value of these investments. Major issues include the integrity of data, the ability to aggregate and display information across all business lines, and the ability to turn the data into actionable information. Capgemini has experience leveraging data warehouse investments to address a variety of business needs including marketing campaigns, regulatory compliance, risk management, 360 degree client view and management reporting.
Item Processing Transformation The electronic capture of checks at businesses, branches and ATMsand the exchange of images for settlement purposesis changing banking forever. Capgemini can help you choose and implement a technology, review branch processes and evaluate proof and backroom departments for next day processing and float management. As more transactions become electronic and real-time, we can help further reduce costs by moving back office functions offshore.

Dynamic Pricing & Packaged Products One of fastest growing trends in retail banking is innovation in the areas of dynamic pricing and packaged products. Pricing for services and payment of interest based on a variety of criteria will create a new generation of consumer products. The ability to adjust pricing based on balances, profitability, channel usage and other factors will require strategic planning on the front end and significant systems development for implementation. The delivery of sophisticated product packages to
attract and retain customers through their entire life cycle will be a growing trend in banks. Capgemini can help you plan, design and implement the systems that will be required to deliver these products. The cost and speed to market requirements for such projects requires a development partner with strong domain expertise and global sourcing capabilities, and Capgemini is a worldclass player in both arenas.
