Capgemini
today announced its successful engagement with Skandiabanken, the
banking arm of Skandia, marked by the debut of LUX, the bank’s newly
transformed digital mortgage lending business. Skandia is an independent
provider of long-term savings and investment products based in Sweden.
LUX, a new automated system for mortgage processing designed and
implemented by Capgemini in less than 12 months, makes it possible for
Skandiabanken to continue to provide attractive offers for mortgages in
the Swedish market.
Additional benefits of the implementation include:
- improved customer experience
- ability to reduce operational risk
- lower costs due to fewer manual steps
- a more competitive and flexible origination process
“Our new LUX digital mortgage lending platform enables our customers
to receive faster decisions about their mortgages with increased
transparency, at competitive rates. With LUX, customers can have the
decisions on mortgage commitments and mortgages in days and for some,
minutes. Our work with Capgemini has resulted in a simplified and
automated mortgage process that will improve customer experience and
enhance customer satisfaction,” said Kristina Tånneryd, Head of
Products, Skandiabanken.
Capgemini designed the mortgage solution using Pega Platform™, the
unified digital process automation (DPA) and case management platform
from Pegasystems, the software company empowering customer engagement at
the world’s leading enterprises. LUX was created by Capgemini to
optimize the business operations and customer experience of the mortgage
offering. The implementation covers the full mortgage business of the
bank, including all property types for existing and new customers.
“Capgemini’s project with Skandiabanken was completed in less than 12
months, which beats the benchmark of the fastest mortgage lending
origination implementation. It has been an exciting journey to
collaborate with Skandiabanken through this implementation and we could
not be more pleased by the results of the team effort to date,” said
Kiran Shah, Head of Financial Services, Capgemini in Sweden.
“Pega’s mission is to solve complex business issues such as those
Skandiabanken faced. Capgemini’s and Skandiabanken’s use of the Pega
Platform to develop their solution is another example of how we can help
financial services companies evolve their offerings,” said Magnus
Lagerqvist, Sales Director – Nordics, Pegasystems. “We were impressed
with the innovative approach by Capgemini and Skandiabanken to customize
the platform to deliver an in-depth, tailored transformation in record
time.”
