The bank has been in the process of digitizing its products and services and has been innovating on this front. The new studio will build on this and help to enhance customer experience. The project also includes new IBM MobileFirst for iOS banking apps supported by IBM Cloud that empower the bank’s financial advisors to deliver a more dynamic, engaging customer experience. The studio will be the first of its kind in the region.
