We are all experiencing an increase in digitalization efforts in banking due to the pandemic. Digital transformation at banks has started earlier with the introduction of internet and mobile banking applications to improve the customers' experience. Digital banking capabilities became a big competitive advantage for banks and created a new market of digital-only banks and fintech. The digital agenda of the new generation banking requires vertical processes and traditional technologies to be redesigned, automated, and optimized across the banks based on digital banking products.
