BCEL Goes Live with HSG
Hi Sun Global Limited plans to expand its business outside of Hong Kong, China, and continue to venture further into Asia. The company has had massive success in China and shows enormous potential to create brand new opportunities in the region.
One of HSG's most significant accomplishments was partnering with Banque pour le Commerce Exterieur Lao Public (BCEL) to offer the next generation in Core Banking Systems in Laos. Official announcement was made on 6th August via an online conference.
BCEL and HSG
The BCEL is one of the largest commercial bank situated in the country of Laos. This bank has been serving customers for years in the Laos region, 24/7, 365 days a year.
BCEL is known for its advancements in the traditional and digital banking system.
Hi Sun Global has also dominated the fintech market in Asia. Due to their success, BCEL decided to go into an innovative partnership with HSG to replace the legacy banking system and revamp it into the next generation. The next generation of the core banking system will allow BCEL to rapidly deploy banking products with a wide array of features and functions. This innovative partnership also fostered the growth of automation.
The next-generation core banking system will have robust channel integrators that enable API. This will allow BCEL and other banks that incorporate this CBS to attain scalability in the future.
Salient Qualities of New-core Banking System (CBS)
The banking sector is growing exponentially, and banks worldwide are looking for a solution that will help simplify their tasks. Hi Sun Global understands this need, due to which they went into partnership with BCEL to create a new core banking system.
The goal is to ensure that this banking system has the following salient qualities:
- Cost-effectiveness to minimise the expenses that a bank would typically have to bear
- Stable and continuous workflow, helping banks overcome bottlenecks in their processes
- Robust security protocols to withstand cyber-attacks. This is an essential point since data privacy is a growing threat in modern society. To give some perspective, the cost of cyber-attacks in the banking sector has reached an average of $18.3 million
- Allows scalability in the future as the banking sector grows.
- Offers flexibility and adaptability as these are essential qualities for any banking system. The new CBS should have a full range of corporate and retail banking products and services. This will allow banks to meet international standards and simplify the deployment process.
New CBS Facilitate BCEL To Expand Globally
New CBS will offer efficiency like never before. The BCEL, as well as banks all over the world, have to follow a set of standards and regulations before they can deploy a new system. Getting a system that abides by these regulations can be a tedious task. HSG considers all these regulations and local practices while developing the system, making it highly configurable and easy to integrate.
Secondly, the banking sector is fast-paced, and the first-mover advantage can make all the difference for any bank. With the help of the HSG integrators and API compatible interface, BCEL can now bring services to the market way ahead of its competition. This will help them locally and ease expanding into the international market.
