Commercial banking

Commercial banking is breaking from the past

In every corner of the economy, from the smallest businesses to the largest enterprises, the commercial banking sector plays a critical role in fueling expansion and achieving ambitions. Today, commercial banking leaders are recalibrating their own visions for success, such as:

  • Digital workflows are replacing many manual tasks.
  • Streamlined client onboarding and origination are doing away with lengthy, multi-department reviews.
  • Manual touchpoints are increasingly becoming exception-based while clients experience more self-service capabilities.
  • Cloud-based solutions and capabilities can better keep pace with and adapt to the newest threats.

The work of growing commercial banking is modernizing too

Effective use of big data and artificial intelligence make it possible to rapidly identify the most attractive prospects in the highest-priority target markets - while lowering the cost of acquisition. Emerging digital banking platforms enabled by the industry cloud can help commercial banks transform the experience of conducting business with them.
