Bank DnB NORD Selects FLEXCUBE as Core Banking Platform for Operations in Six European Countries


Denmark and Finland Operations Live on FLEXCUBE

MUMBAI, India, Oct. 2 / - i-flex® solutions (Reuters: IFLX.BO & IFLX.NS) announced today that Bank DnB NORD's Danish and Finnish operations are live on FLEXCUBE, its flagship product. DnB NORD is a joint venture between Oslo-based DnB NOR, Norway's largest financial services group, and NORD/LB, Norddeutsche Landesbank und Girocentrale, a leading universal bank in North Germany. The bank selected FLEXCUBE for its banking transformation initiative across Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland, Finland and Denmark. The FLEXCUBE implementation commenced late February this year, and Denmark and Finland were live by early July.

The transformation project spans the corporate and consumer business of DnB NORD, across multiple legal entities. A joint team from the bank and i-flex Consulting(TM) created a common business operating model across all countries and is now helping DnB NORD standardize its business structure and processes on FLEXCUBE for better operational efficiency.

Jan Kuhnel, COO Bank DnB NORD noted: "We are pleased that FLEXCUBE has gone live in a remarkably short time span - about 4 months - in Denmark and Finland. i-flex has demonstrated its ability to deliver solutions at aggressive timelines, and we're confident the transformation of our banking platforms in other countries will follow just as quickly. The ability to run multi-entity operations and the product's breadth of functionality to address the needs of our existing businesses and evolving demands shaped by future growth and shifting regulatory requirements were ideal credentials."

On partnering with DnB NORD, Joseph John, Executive Vice-President, Banking Products Division, i-flex solutions, stated: "We are delighted to be a partner of choice at DnB NORD to enable the banking transformation program. Encouraged by the success of going live with FLEXCUBE in the Nordics (Denmark and Finland) in an aggressive time frame, we are confident we will keep up the pace for FLEXCUBE going live across the rest of DnB NORD's countries of operation."
