International Personal Finance together with IT partner, HCL, has won the FStech “Digital Transformation Project of the Year”. The award is in recognition of IPF’s OneDigital project, which has created a single, end-to-end digital lending platform across Europe.
IPF’s OneDigital took the award over a host of other competing financial services companies such as Lloyds, Nat West and Cognizant. The OneDigital platform allows customers access to finance in a friction-less customer journey and was recognised for bringing a human touch to technological change. The platform both extends IPF’s products to potential new customer segments but is also a protective measure against Covid restrictions by offering digital repayment options to customers when they are unable to meet with their customer representative.
IPF’s Group Head of IT, Amy Foster, joined HCL’s Account Manager, Abhishek Verma, on the stage at the gala event at the London Marriot Grosvenor Square. On collecting the award Amy Foster, said: “It is fantastic to be recognised. The migration to a single platform was a significant milestone for both the IPF Group and my colleagues in IT, and marks an important turning point in our strategy to create a world-class, technology-enabled, global financial organisation.”
