In progressClose to the customer

The Bank took measures focused on building positive customer experience and closer relations with its customers. These measures included strategic initiatives aimed at developing customer-oriented solutions, standardizing the services provided through various channels, and digitizing the sales and service processes.

The management of customer relations is supported by investments in the modern CRM, which is a tool used by advisors, agents and the Contact Center. The CRM for corporate banking, which is currently being implemented, will guarantee a new quality of service for corporate customers.

The implementation of a business model, with a product and price offer tailored to the needs of companies, is a task for the newly formed Corporate Banking Centre. With a dedicated service model, PKO Bank Polski will be able to improve its market position in the segment of enterprises with revenues in the range of PLN 5–30 million.

To improve relations with corporate and institutional customers, PKO Bank Polski launched a modern online banking platform iPKO biznes, which (in addition to an updated graphic design) has some new functions. The online platform is supplemented with a mobile application for corporate customers. Furthermore, a multi-currency cash pooling system was implemented. It is the first solution of this type in Poland.

A newly opened branch in the Czech Republic, which is another branch located outside Poland after the one in Frankfurt, offers the Bank’s customers new opportunities for establishing business relations.

In the mobile application ranking published by the Retail Banker International monthly, IKO took first place among the applications offered by 100 banks from all over the world.

PKO Bank Polski launched the “Laboratory Branch” project to test innovative solutions aimed at improving customer service at the Bank’s branches in the real-life environment.

Work on the implementation of a new format of the Bank’s branches is under way. The project includes e.g. re-arrangement of the branches’ appearance, testing of new technological solutions aimed at improving customer service, customer identification and transaction approval.
