Financial Services

Onboarding, identity, documents and cyber resilience for banks and financial institutions in South Africa and Mauritius, built so an auditor can follow every step.

What the sector is dealing with

Four pressures we hear from banks

Onboarding that loses customers

Every extra document request or branch visit costs a sign-up. Customers expect to open an account on a phone, and customer due diligence still has to be satisfied in full.

Fraud built on stolen and synthetic identities

Identity fraud keeps growing, so verification has to check the person against a trusted source at the moment of onboarding and keep the evidence.

Cyber resilience written into regulation

Regulators now expect documented cyber controls, regular testing and prompt incident reporting, and they expect the board to own them.

Paper still running the back office

Contracts, statements and supporting documents arrive as PDFs and scans, and someone keys them in. Each manual step is a delay and an error waiting to happen.

What you answer to

The rules your systems are measured against

Each of these shapes what a bank can buy and how it has to be built. Here is how our work lines up.
