Ten UK fintechs have been brought together in an initiative by PwC that aims to showcase how the future of banking will rely on collaboration and innovation, with personalisation at its heart.

Three years in the making, the 10 businesses have contributed to the firm’s Tysl ecosystem, which incorporates a number of solutions including software, automation, artificial intelligence (AI), data management and analytics, among others.

These solutions are designed to make it easier for customers to open up bank accounts, obtain specialised finance, and even digitally sign documents. 

A future proofed platform

By adopting an API-enabled approach, which allows different software applications to communicate with one another, Tysl has enabled these businesses to collaborate and innovate together with PwC to build a banking technology proposition that allows organisations to significantly improve performance across a range of key measures.

This includes tackling complex customer journeys such as advanced customer relationship management (CRM), know your customer (KYC), credit decisioning and in life account and loan servicing across a number of areas such as mortgages, savings and corporate lending.

Using Tysl, PwC is now able to quickly build new digital solutions via a modern, low cost and customer centric digital lending platform. This in turn will help the firm’s clients transform their customer facing operations, and enhance products and services to meet the speed and multi-channel expectations demanded in today’s world.

"Banking is changing, people expect more and require personalised digital interactions," commented James Morgan, lead partner on Tysl. "Based on the needs and expectations of tomorrow’s customers, we have developed our Tysl platform. This is helping our clients reach new customers, upsell and grow topline revenue by delivering enhanced capabilities whilst significantly reducing the costs of servicing the client from onboarding to in life servicing."
