Case Study

How We Reduced Account Processing Times by 60%

for a Leading Corporate Bank

In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, efficiency is everything—especially for banks managing a large volume of clients. This case study dives into how we helped a leading corporate bank streamline their online banking account creation process, reducing processing times by 60% and enhancing customer satisfaction. 

Challenges Faced

The corporate banking division of this well-established institution struggled with onboarding delays for corporate employees requiring online banking access. The manual process involved verifying client details, checking signature registrations across various systems, and assigning access privileges. Each step was time-consuming, prone to human error, and resulted in inconsistent turnaround times, causing frustration for both the bank and its clients. 

Time-consuming manual validations across different platforms 

Delays in checking signature registrations 

High error rates when assigning access privileges 

Inconsistent communication with corporate clients during the onboarding process 

How We Solved Their Problems?

To eliminate these bottlenecks, we implemented Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to fully automate the corporate online banking account creation process. Here’s how we approached the challenge

Automated Data Validation

The robot validated personal and corporate details directly from the bank's internal system, eliminating the need for manual verification.

Signature Check Integration

We integrated the solution with a separate signature registration system, ensuring accurate cross-checking without manual input.

Dynamic Privilege Assignment

Based on corporate policy, the robot automatically assigned transaction privileges (initiation or approval) to each new account.

Automated Notifications

Once the account was created, the system automatically sent an email or SMS with login details and instructions, ensuring that clients were informed in real-time.

The entire process, from request validation to sending notifications, was handled by the RPA solution, reducing the need for manual intervention and drastically speeding up onboarding times.
