Challenge


Digital innovation has been a focus of Hang Seng Bank in recent years. Traditionally, banks communicate with their customers only by email or customers' native applications. However, the incompatibility between these traditional practices and innovative technologies became a major hindrance to the digital transformation of the financial industry. In addition, the costs associated with increasing app adoption, improving app security, and app customization are high. These factors, coupled with a long app development life cycle, makes native app development an expensive solution with low economic payoff.
