(PRWEB UK) 15 November 2017 -- SBAB is Sweden’s fifth largest bank and offers loan and saving products to consumers, tenant-owner associations and property companies in Sweden. SBAB has approximately 350,000 customers and about 500 employees. SBAB’s vision is to offer the best mortgage loans in Sweden and it does this by striving to deliver on the customer promise of accessibility, transparency and consideration. SBAB wants to expand and is aiming to grow its market share for both consumer and corporate customers. So far in 2017, its market share has grown from 7.35 to 7.52 percent due to favorable terms and conditions, simplicity and good customer service.
SBAB’s ambition is to provide a customer experience that is exceptional. To achieve this, modern and flexible IT infrastructure is needed with related services that allow speed and flexibility to develop, test and establish new digital functions and services.
“City Cloud for Bank & Finance, which is made available by City Network, is a solution that is well matched to the needs of SBAB. We believe the solution is at the forefront in its field and fulfils our demands for regulatory compliance and security,” says Danne Alenius, Head of IT Operations.
Since 2015, City Network has offered independent, sector-specific cloud services tailored for companies with very high demands on security and regulatory compliance with the same functionality, cost efficiency and flexibility as in its public cloud service.
“Banks are today facing a huge challenge and a completely new competitive situation. Like most other traditional companies, they must therefore constantly develop their offering,” says Johan Christenson, CEO and founder of City Network and Board member of the OpenStack Foundation. “The time is past when a development project could take six months. Digital innovation must be dynamic, and scalable IT infrastructure based on openness is a very important cornerstone in this work. In light of this, it is therefore very gratifying that SBAB, as the first bank in Sweden, is leading the way and we are very much looking forward to working together with them,” concludes Johan.
