Thanks to the Open Finance Platform, customers will be able to use, among other things, miniaplications designed for businesses. One of the first ones will be dedicated to invoice processing and management, both from the point of view of the issuer and the recipient. In turn, the bank's employees will get an intuitive and fast tool that will provide them with full information about their customers, accept their applications or prepare a profiled marketing offer. OPF will be available to companies from the corporate sector, small and mid-sized enterprises, as well as to sole proprietorships.
The new solution will be created on the basis of an omni-channel platform that uses selected modules of Asseco Customer Banking Platform (Asseco CBP) and Asseco Advisory Banking Platform (Asseco ABP).

Currently, customers expect from their bank something more than just a favorable commercial offer. It is important to offer them services that enable them to process their financial documents in a comfortable, quick and, what is most important, secure manner. The Asseco's platform will support factoring services provided to existing clients and will also help us attract new customers,  said Piotr Karwiński, Director of the Transaction Banking Department at Bank Pekao S.A.Thanks to the experience gained during the implementation of solutions based on the omnichannel platform, we were able to offer our client a comprehensive solution for handling trade financing products. We have developed all of its functionalities specifically for this project.

In recent years, we have proved that we are a trusted partner and that we take full responsibility for our tasks, said Arkadiusz Wójcik, Director of the Social Insurance Division, Asseco Poland.

In the tender for the modification and development of KSI ZUS, two offers have been submitted, including one made by Asseco Poland. ZUS has decided to select both bidders. They will compete for the implementation of the projects within the limits of the contract's budget.Asseco has also signed an agreement for the modification of KSI ZUS in connection with shortening the period of storing employee files and their digitization, as well as for optimization changes in the "Płatnik" ("Payer") program, which will be carried out in two stages for the next 12 months.

Asseco Poland announced today, that it will build a fully digital bank in Germany, a new division of Golden Sand Bank. While building the new division in Germany, Golden Sand Bank will use Asseco Core Banking solution, IBM software as a Service applications, and a new cloud-based IBM Bank in a Box solution, in order to integrate its operations with European payments systems such as SWIFT and SEPA-SCT. The solution will also enable to define the products and administer contracts including current accounts, credit and debit cards.

Asseco is not only a leading provider of software for the banks in Poland but also it consistently marks up its presence on the foreign markets. Our original systems are being implemented in Austria, the Czech Republic, Georgia, Nigeria and Vietnam among others. The collaboration with IBM is one of the paths to strengthen our international recognition in the financial sector. The established cooperation has resulted in a mutual offer and realization of the first projects with example of setting up a Golden Sand Bank last year and starting works over its expansion in Germany. The Golden Sand Bank's banking systems use IBM infrastructure and services and the Asseco business software – said Zbigniew Pomianek, Vice President of Asseco Poland Management Board.

This is another milestone of Golden Sand Bank, an online wealth management project, which was launched last year. As the fintech business model requires an agile approach with no upfront investment, and in order to build the foundation for its new business, Golden Sand Bank chose IBM to deploy together with Asseco a cloud-based “bank-in-a-box” solution developed by teams from IBM Services. The solution employs the IBM Cloud hybrid platform for the banking solution along with services based on IBM data centers in Poland.

The Bank-in-a-Box solution allows for setting up a bank in 6 months only. It greatly reduces the implementation costs and lowers the financial loss risk. The solution supports regular changes and provides for continuing the development with new services – said Artur Wróblewski, Global Technology Services, Leader, IBM Polska.

The central system of the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund (nSIU System) is responsible for handling social and health insurance, as well as short-term benefits and accidents in agriculture. It is used daily by more than 3,000 Agricultural Social Insurance Fund employees, to whom it provides all functionalities online - documents are generated in real time upon the user's request. The main element of the system is the central repository of personal data of persons insured via the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund, which is a reference for other systems of the Fund, such as the FARMER pension service system, the Workflow system integrating the Agricultural Social Insurance Fund branch systems, or the e-KRUS Portal subsystem. The solution is also integrated with the systems of other public institutions: i.a. the Ministry of Interior Register - PESEL, NFZ, MRPiPS, PFRON, ARiMR.
