We\u2019re proud to be their partner of choice, enabling innovation through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finastra.com\/replace-your-core\">Finastra Essence<\/a> \u2014 our flagship core banking platform and helping our clients reimagine banking.<\/p>\n<p>Finastra Essence, built on and cloud technologies, combined with rich functional capabilities, has been instrumental in propelling Tonik and Oro bank\u2019s growth .<\/p>\n<p>What stands out for Tonik is the flexibility that Essence provides, enabling them to launch new products swiftly, reduce operational costs fivefold in the past 2 years, and expand its loan portfolio sevenfold \u2014 all while enabling real-time access to core banking data for AI-driven personalisation. Essence\u2019s no code product composer and ability to blend functionalities from different areas of financial services has been a key enabler of product innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Oro Bank\u2019s journey is equally inspiring. As APAC\u2019s first full-reserve digital bank, it\u2019s a catalyst for growth in Bhutan\u2019s Gelephu Mindfulness City SAR. With Essence\u2019s cloud-native and open architecture, Oro Bank launched globally in just six months, seamlessly integrating with fintech partners and digital channels. Essence\u2019s open REST APIs and modularity have also been instrumental in Oro bank\u2019s fast integration and time to market.<\/p>\n<p><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Ultimately, Essence empowers banks to move<\/span> \u2014 and that\u2019s what the IBSi DBA Awards celebrate.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h5><em>\u201cFinastra Essence, built on modern microservices and cloud technologies has been instrumental in helping Tonik and Oro Bank reimagine banking. For Tonik, Essence\u2019s flexibility has empowered them to swiftly launch new products, reduce operational costs by fivefold over the past two years, and expand their loan portfolio sevenfold\u2014all while enabling real-time access to core banking data for AI-driven personalisation. Meanwhile, Essence\u2019s modularity has been instrumental in accelerating Oro Bank\u2019s integration and time to market.\u201d<\/em><em>\u2014 Siobhan Byron, EVP, Finastra Universal Banking<\/em><\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>In your view, how is core banking evolving in the current landscape of open finance, embedded services, and digital-first expectations?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Core banking has always been foundational, but now it is becoming a strategic enabler of innovation, agility, and customer-centricity. In today\u2019s landscape, where open finance and embedded services are reshaping how financial products are consumed, banks are under pressure to deliver more than just stability \u2014 they must deliver adaptability.<\/p>\n<p>Customers now expect their financial experiences to be instant, intuitive, and seamlessly integrated into their digital lives. This shift is pushing banks to rethink their core systems \u2014not just in terms of functionality, but in terms of architecture. Banks are increasingly adopting microservices and API-first design principles while that can evolve with market demands, integrate with fintech ecosystems, and support rapid innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Cloud technology is a key enabler of this transformation. While many banks are embracing cloud-native solutions to gain scalability and resilience, on-prem deployment is still a preferred approach in many regions. What\u2019s important is that banks have the flexibility to choose the deployment model that aligns with their operational and strategic goals, and Essence allows them this flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, core banking is evolving into a platform for possibility. It is no longer just about processing transactions \u2014 it is about enabling banks to rapidly respond to change, collaborate across ecosystems, and deliver meaningful value to customers in a digital-first world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How are you working to develop your offerings further \u2013 can you tell us what\u2019s in the pipeline?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ongoing innovation is central to how we evolve our core banking platform, Essence. It combines deep, end-to-end banking functionality with modern, flexible technology to help financial institutions reimagine how they deliver value. Essence is designed for seamless interoperability with an open API-first architecture and a growing partner ecosystem. We are expanding globally and locally \u2014 bringing new capabilities to market faster, together.<\/p>\n<p>We are embedding intelligence across the banking journey \u2014 from insight-rich dashboards to GenAI-powered assistants like\u00a0<strong>Essence AIAssist<\/strong>, which gives employees instant, conversational access to platform knowledge. Our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.finastra.com\/viewpoints\/brochure\/finastra-essence-data-analytics-finastra-retail-analytics\"><strong>Retail Analytics<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>engine drives predictive actions like churn reduction, product recommendations, and cashflow forecasting \u2014continuously evolving for sharper outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>We are advancing our roadmap for our clients under three strategic pillars: <strong>Adapt, Evolve<\/strong>, and <strong>Thrive<\/strong>. This means helping banks adapt to a fast-moving financial landscape through AI-driven insights and composable architecture; evolve by solving new challenges with modular, resilient technology; and thrive by delivering seamless, digital-first experiences across retail, SME, and commercial banking \u2014 including Islamic banking.<\/p>\n<p>One area we are focusing on is enabling our customers to upgrade their core banking system via a flexible and modular strategy. The traditional \u2018rip and replace\u2019 method can come with prolonged timelines, high costs, and operational disruption. This is necessary and unavoidable sometimes. However, in addition, we are also offering our customers a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finastra.com\/viewpoints\/white-paper\/advantage-symbiosis-strategy\">Symbiosis approach<\/a>, where a next-generation core banking system is deployed alongside existing infrastructure, enabling rapid innovation while minimising costs and disruption. Essence allows banks to replace individual components instead of the entire system at once, meaning they do not need to invest in another system. Using microservices architecture and APIs, features like lending or Islamic banking can be quickly integrated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your take on how usage of AI <\/strong><strong>and analytics are shaping the banking industry? How does Finastra Universal banking align with this?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>AI and advanced analytics are fundamentally reshaping banking \u2014 moving it from reactive service delivery to proactive, insight-driven engagement. Banks are using AI not only to automate routine tasks but to unlock deeper customer understanding, enabling more personalised, timely, and relevant experiences. Our recent\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.finastra.com\/financial-services-state-nation-survey-2024\"><em>Financial Services State of the Nation<\/em><\/a>\u00a0survey reflects this momentum: 61% of financial institutions reported improving their AI capabilities in the past year \u2014 nearly double the figure from 2022.<\/p>\n<p>At Finastra Universal Banking, we see AI as a strategic layer across our solutions. From AI-powered dashboards that surface actionable insights to agentic AI assistants that enhance productivity and decision-making, we are embedding intelligence across the banking value chain. Our recent launch of\u00a0<strong>Essence AIAssist<\/strong>\u00a0is a great example \u2014 giving users, i.e. bank employees instant, conversational access to platform knowledge, powered by GenAI. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finastra.com\/viewpoints\/brochure\/finastra-essence-data-analytics-finastra-retail-analytics\">Finastra Retail Analytics<\/a>, our insights and recommendation engine supports predictive and prescriptive use cases such as customer churn prediction, next-best product recommendations, and cashflow forecasting.<\/p>\n<p>We are also investing in AI beyond our products. Internally, we have rolled out Microsoft Copilot, launched upskilling programs, and hosted a GenAI learning festival to ensure our teams are equipped to innovate responsibly and effectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you see as the biggest challenge facing the banking sector and how do you as Finastra help institutions address it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges facing banks today is keeping pace with rapid change while managing uncertainty. Technology offers immense opportunity but also introduces complexity \u2014 from evolving job roles and regulatory demands to operational risk. At Finastra, we help institutions turn this challenge into a catalyst for transformation.<\/p>\n<p>Banks must embrace change and adapt strategies to stay competitive and meet customer needs. Our solutions and experts help institutions foster a culture of change and adopt technology and robust risk management. Essence\u2019s modularity supports incremental transformation and helps banks reduce operational risk,\u00a0accelerate product launches, and\u00a0improve customer engagement. At Finastra, we make banking more accessible, efficient, and personalised, ensuring progress benefits individuals and communities.<\/p>\n<p>For banks to stay agile enough to truly reimagine banking, we think it comes down to the following areas: embracing Symbiosis, tapping into ecosystems, and utilising technology and data to augment human experiences. This is where we believe we will see the best opportunities for us and our customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; In conversation with Siobhan Byron, EVP, Finastra Universal Banking, we explore how Tonik and Oro Bank are scaling faster, cutting costs, and unlocking AI-driven personalisation on Finastra\u2019s cloud-first core, Essence\u2014and how the Symbiosis strategy is helping both digital spinouts and established banks modernise with agility.
