This is the 3rd win for Finacle in Nigeria in as many months. In all these cases Infosys has won against best-in-class global competition. As the Nigerian financial sector, as elsewhere in the world, goes through the process of globalisation and reforms, banks are looking for IT systems that can provide them business agility and time-to-market advantage. In this scenario, Finacle with its new generation web enabled architecture, rich functionality and high level of flexibility, and our track record of rapid and successful implementations, has clearly emerged the winner. We look forward to working with Oceanic Bank to rapidly deploy our solution, which will enable the bank to aggressively move ahead with its new business initiatives. said Merwin Fernandes, Associate Vice President and Head Marketing and Sales in the Banking Business Unit at Infosys.
We now have a strong base in the country. Our focus now is to enable our customers go live with our solutions rapidly, smoothly and successfully. said Mr. Amit Dua, Sales Manager West Africa, Infosys Technologies Ltd.
According to Mr. Oboden V Ibru, Chief Operating Officer of Oceanic Bank, Oceanic Bank is aiming to rapidly expand its reach, acquire new customers and launch several innovative products. We are certain that Finacle from Infosys, being a fully web enabled new generation core banking system, will provide the bank a powerful and flexible foundation for its new initiatives. We are also confident that this partnership will immensely benefit us in our endeavor, by being able to leverage the global perspective, experience and expertise that Infosys is able to bring to the table.
We evaluated different solutions to revamp our IT infrastructure and we found Finacle suitable for delivering what we expect a contemporary bank should do. Banking environment in this market is highly competitive and technology is going to be the key differentiator. We are looking forward to implementing the new system in the shortest possible time. said Mr. Roland Oaikhina (Head – IT), Oceanic Bank, Nigeria.
This third customer win in Nigeria appears to have firmly entrenched Computer Warehouse as a leading IT company in Nigeria and the strategic technology partner of Infosys. With Computer Warehouse’s reach and Infosys’s state of the art products – the Infosys Enterprise Banking E-platform – we are now targeting to achieve the market leadership position in Nigeria. said Mr. Austin Okere, Managing Director of Computer Warehouse Ltd., Nigeria.
