New era in E-Banking: Omikron strengthens its leading position through technological innovations and consistent compliance with all requirements
The market for e-banking solutions is undergoing a paradigm shift, mainly caused by new technologies and compliance requirements. The increasing demand for open banking APIs, advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, cloud solutions, and enhanced cybersecurity measures are preparing the industry for transformative changes.
Moreover, the growing regulatory requirements in the areas of anti-money laundering (AML) and Know-Your-Customer (KYC), as well as in closely related product areas, underscore the need for integrated solutions, as offered by Omikron.
Omikron and FLEX Capital share a visionary perspective aimed at expanding the functionality of MultiCash solutions in transaction banking, treasury, and finance, enhancing customer care, and going beyond traditional market boundaries. By implementing new technological capabilities and adapting to regulatory requirements, they strive to establish Omikron as a leading innovator and trusted partner in digital banking.
"Omikron stands for reliable software and sustainable growth. We are proud to accompany this established company on its journey into the future and to shape the digital banking landscape together," adds Christoph Jost, Managing Partner at FLEX Capital.
