L ast year , 85 % of banks said that implementing a digital transformation programme was a “ business priority ” according to the EY Global Banking Outlook . Perhaps nowhere can this be seen better than at GarantiBank International N . V . Amid a flurry of digital disruption in the banking space , the Amsterdam-headquartered company has held its own , embarking on a root-and-branch digital transformation strategy .
A subsidiary of Turkiye Garanti Bankasi AS ( Garanti ), GarantiBank is striving to become a shining example of a modern , digitalised bank . But make no mistake , this isn ’ t a fleeting initiative . Rather , this is an intensive multi-year project which has seen the company revamp its back-office infrastructure , tap into the power of data , foster innovative ways of working and much more . “ When you ’ re embarking on a digital transformation project , it ’ s not something that you can do overnight . It takes multiple years to transform an organisation with the size of GarantiBank ,” explains Chief Digital Officer , Alex Hurkmans .
