iGTB at Sibos 2022 COCB

Manish Maakan, Uppili Srinivasan (Upps), Atanu Ganguli, Andrew England, Debal Dutt and team Intellect Global Transaction Banking | iGTB great show at Sibos 2022.

Upps, I love the succinct 7-minute articulation of COCB – Consumerisation of Commercial Banking (our core theme at Sibos), wired with domain and technology.

The sharpness of 6 tenets of COCB – 1. Hyper Personalisation, 2. Real-time, Connected journeys, 3. Action-triggering insights, 4. Immediacy, 5. Desire & trust-based decision making, 6. Friction-free experience – even at scale, which the banks need to understand and have a gameplan to embrace

3 dimensions of Technology architecture – Composability, Contextuality and Hyperscale along with Data has woven very well.

The need for a Platform and Intellect ability to compose products based on end consumer needs leading to a HOLISTIC experience vs ‘experience at the door’ is captured very well in your video.

I also like 5 imperative for Banks (Revenue Growth, Revenue Protection, Cost avoidance, risk protection and risk elimination) as a driver for choosing Intellect. Congratulations.

Reminiscing Polaris journey Foundation Day

It was 24th July, 1993, Polaris Software Lab Ltd got its registration to commence software business.

We got our first international projects from Data General Inc, Raleigh to support their File system. Data General was then a mid range Computer company. We setup first ODC for them at 3rd Floor Carex Center.

Second business was from Saudi Arabia from Saudi American Bank. We supported their client server banking application.

Third contract was from Switzerland with JWS partnership.

The 4th large project was from Software Sidoun, Germany.

The 5th very, very large project was from NEC Japan for writing component based Core banking system. It was led from their Silicon Valley office and it was 100 million dollar contract over 4 years during 1998.

We setup our UK office at Reading, Singapore office, Frankfurt office, Fremont Office, Atlanta office, NJ office, Tokyo office in first 5 years of our operations

All initiatives were bootstraped without any investor support.

It was sheer power of Talent, who believed in sheer entrepreneurial spirit and made the company grew at CAGR of 105 percent over first 7 years which led it to being classified amongst Top 200 Fastest growing companies of the world.

Today Intellect is continuing ‘Path breaking journey in financial technology’ by letting go services business and reinventing its brand to ‘Intellect’ from Polaris.

We let go 2 things at the same time demonstrating Courage of Leadership team at Intellect

1. Cash generating business of Services

2. Globally very well known brand.

I am dedicating this day to BELIEF, Courage, Innovation, intense Customer focus and Power of one intellect team. I draw my daily dose of energy from all of you. Thank you.
