Customers’ appetite for fast and intuitive digital experiences is accelerating, and the pressure to keep pace can be felt across the banking and financial services industry. However, the inability of core banking systems to keep up with the demands of modern technologies, such as processing transactions in real-time, ensuring quick product releases, and scaling up and down their infrastructure needs when required, is one of the key reasons why banks fail to deliver intelligent customer-centric services.
An API-led connectivity approach can help banks horizontally integrate their systems to fully digitize the banking experience for customers. Banks have vast amounts of customer and transaction data, which is an advantage. However, most customer information is stuck in organizational silos, resulting in disconnected experiences across all sales and marketing channels and lines of business.
Data synchronization is one of the most challenging integration scenarios for banks. Core banking data like accounts, cards, and transactions are required to be accessed by other systems. CRM software, like Salesforce, need access to this data so that customer care representatives can better handle the dispute calls on the transactions as well as inquiries and complaints. Another challenge is that data is often available in different formats. Standardizing data and bringing it to an API Platform so that it is easily accessible for the banking systems to be consumed readily is a key problem that needs to be addressed.
