Background

With the growing smart economy, banking industry in Singapore is expected to benefit heavily in the coming years. With more sales potential comes a greater need for customer service expansion, otherwise, growing dissatisfaction among unserved customers will lead to bad reviews and increasing termination of saving accounts, jeopardising sales expansion efforts.

The current capacity for customer services had been at saturation for years, with waiting time of one to three hours, and a long queue that requires additional manpower to manage. Most of these services on demand were administrative and non value-generating to the bank. With bank branches constantly at full capacity and making an appointment a hassle, it has dettered people who had intention of enquiring about financial products to cast it aside, resulting in opportunity costs for growth.
