A human-centric payment vision to maximise sales

An ecosystem strategy to enhance CX and increase agility
A Nordic retail bank with a pan-European presence
The open finance ecosystem with its up and downstream players enables traditional banks to re-configure their service and value chain strategies. To build a new growth engine, our client wanted to understand how to leverage and engage the ecosystem players to serve its customers better and run the business efficiently.
