Key Findings & Highlights:

Syntel began its digital banking services by supporting payment companies in implementing new offerings which required digital enablement to deliver functionality that they did not have in their legacy platforms. The first digital banking engagement was undertaken in 2013 with the Applepay offering, which was delivered via the American Express Bank. Syntel worked on the transaction processing functionality (TPF) and the mainframe platform to support this platform modernization, for the new offering launch.

Syntel has expanded its digital banking capabilities over the past four years on multiple engagements, notably with the addition of loan functionality to the PayPal platform. The unique capability of this lending platform is its ability to generate a lending decision “instantly”. The lending decision is made in milliseconds and appears to be instant to the customer. Syntel’s work in digital banking services is primarily with tier one financial institutions, adapting their legacy platforms to deliver digital banking functionalities.
