Tieto and Aktia Group have signed a co-operation agreement on the development of web services. The Group's entire web portal will be updated in stages.
This will provide Aktia's customers with modern and more flexible online banking services.
The development of Aktia's web services is based on Tieto's eBanking Suite solution which offers tools, for example, for implementing internet and mobile services alongside the current basic banking services. With the updated web portal, Aktia can create a personal channel for its customers for managing their financial matters. Customers can also easily take care of their banking, regardless of time and location.
"For many customers, web services are currently the principal channel for transactions. Therefore, functionality, user-friendliness and scope of the services are the critical conditions for successful banking today. Tieto offers Aktia a good foundation and the required support services for implementing the update project," says Juha Volotinen, responsible for Aktia's web services.
"Self services in Nordic banks have already for a long time been the most widely used web services in the world. They were initially implemented primarily due to structural changes in banks, which can currently also be seen on the Central European financial market. We are delighted to be able to carry out truly unique and state-of-the-art web services for Aktia's customers," says Jussi Grönholm, Vice President, Financial Services, Tieto Finland.
