Since the launch of the new Digital Account Opening initiative the team has concluded that the gap has reduced significantly between the Bank and certain new-fintech and new-high street competitors. The Bank performs at par or better than its direct competition set (other Indian Banks). The Retail team has taken several initiatives such as a 3-in-1 account and arrangements with the Parent bank’s NRI business to enable a significant scale up in its PCA business. In addition, the retail team is also working on a digital on-boarding solution for its business customers. As these initiatives get rolled out, the Bank will create a significant service and product differentiation.
