Texas Capital (TCBI) Rolls Out Account Onboarding Solution
Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. TCBI has rolled out Texas Capital Initio, a digital onboarding solution designed to improve the commercial banking experience by simplifying and accelerating the process of opening an account.
Initio is an internally-developed, proprietary cloud native software application allowing businesses to open commercial accounts within days, a process that can often take up to multiple weeks.
The application uses a streamlined and automated approach with the ability to electronically submit key data and allows electronic signatures. This eliminates the burdensome and lengthy manual processes typically associated with account onboarding.
“With a devoted focus on technology and a strong commitment to client-centric solutions, we have transformed the account opening experience for businesses,” remarked Texas Capital’s chief information officer, Don Goin. He continued, “Initio represents an innovative solution that addresses a pain point that many commercial clients traditionally face.”
“This solution represents the next generation of banking, one fueled by digital transformation,” stated Nancy McDonnell, head of Treasury Solutions at Texas Capital. He further added, “As of the first quarter of 2023, Texas Capital now onboards over 70% of all treasury clients digitally with Initio. By reducing the time and effort required for account setup, this technology empowers businesses to focus on their core operations, driving growth and operational efficiency.”
The move underlines TCBI’s plans to digitalize its operations by strategically designating in-house and third-party platforms to build scale as well as shore up its client experience, which sifts the bank from its rivals.
Through such moves, the bank can achieve simplified interactions and client enablement by focusing on infrastructure modernization through cloud native platforms, application programming interfaces.
Moreover, the new solution can improve client offering and drive new operating-account relationships, thereby improving fee income.
In the past three months, shares of TCBI have gained 1.5% against the industry’s decline of 12.6%.
