Technical Onboarding and Connectivity for Corporate Clients: The Imperative to Transform
Abstract
Most onboarding solutions, whether built by a bank or solution provider, focus on a broad set of processes across sales automation, know-your-customer (KYC)/know-your-business (KYB), credit analysis, account opening, service/product fulfillment, and ongoing maintenance. But these same solutions often miss a critical step, especially for the most complex transaction banking services—technical onboarding for integration and connectivity.
