Mastering Cost Efficiency in Core Banking Systems
Before the enhanced partnership with Sopra Banking, Atijari Wafa Bank grappled with significant challenges in scaling their core banking systems across multiple countries. As the bank expanded beyond Morocco, they required a unified core banking solution to achieve economies of scale and ensure consistent service quality. Managing costs was a critical issue, given the price sensitivity of their customer base and the need to balance fixed and variable costs.
The complexity of delivering high-quality, cost-effective services across diverse markets highlighted the need for a robust, adaptable banking system. Sopra Banking’s solutions, including the Amplitude platform, addressed these challenges by providing a scalable, integrated system that supported the bank’s expansive operations while enhancing efficiency and reducing costs.
“I’m happy to say that today we are the number one customer of SBS (ex-Sopra Banking Software) for this product.”
