Product Delivery System

Business Challenge

In today’s world of competition in the retail credit market, financial terms are not the only requirement that convinces clients and agents to make a decision on what kind of credit line to choose. Simplicity and speed of credits approval are clearly of greatest importance. There is an obvious and explicit need for quick and secure credit applications with much more simplified credit approval processes.

Clients want a simple procedure when it comes to getting loans at the time they most need it. Therefore, a tool for effective clients' communication with the bank should be provided to the sales. At the same time, the bank administrators and clerks require an automated process of loan processing (approving) which doesn't require client's interaction under ordinary circumstances.

Solution

For agents who want to offer retail credit to their clients without clients' visit to the bank, Product Delivery represents an ideal solution. It is a web-based application which allows clients to communicate with the bank from their stores and offices. The process of approval and credit request completion is much faster, simpler and more efficient with Product Delivery compared to the existing fax communication procedure.
