Focus secures new bank contract

MIDLANDS financial software supplier Focus Solutions Group has signed a new contract with a major global retail bank to help service its mortgage distribution product in the UK.
 
Under the terms of the contract, Leamington Spa-based Focus Solutions will supply its focus:360° to the bank. Positive test results have shown there is scope for the product to be used by the bank in order to meet its distribution needs.

Commenting on the new client contract, Richard Stevenson, CEO of Focus Solutions, said: “We are delighted to be engaged with yet another major UK retail bank on a key distribution project for their business.

“Through this contract we are now working with three out of the top four banks in the UK, all of whom are major players on the global stage, and this demonstrates further diversification of our customer base.”
 
Focus Solutions is an established supplier of multi-channel distribution software to the global financial services industry.   

It has delivered more than 100 complex front office projects with multiple integration points and its blue chip client base includes eight out of the top 10 UK Life & Pension providers, a number of leading bancassurers such as HSBC and Irish Life, significant wealth management firms such as St James’s Place and a number of mortgage providers.  

Focus has brought together three key areas of expertise: software, consultancy and service delivery and focus:360° is at the core of all its work. It provides a single, multi-channel technology platform and the integrated approach enables the group’s clients to distribute any product across any channel. At the same time they can maintain an operation-wide view of their customer’s value and risk.
