Capital Bank received the "Best Implementation of Core Banking Services" award from IBS Intelligence in 2023, marking a significant achievement in their year. This accolade, presented by IBS Intelligence based in the UK, recognizes Capital Bank's excellence and innovation in the banking sector.

The award specifically highlights how Capital Bank utilized Temenos’ core banking solutions to launch a transformative project aimed at upgrading its core banking system. This strategic move aligns with the bank's vision for expansion and its ambitious growth plans.

Over recent years, Capital Bank successfully executed three major core banking projects, each significantly impacting the bank's performance within remarkably short timeframes. Notably, the smooth launch of the National Bank of Iraq's branch in Saudi Arabia within just 45 days enabled an enhanced banking experience for customers.

Additionally, Capital Bank streamlined operations through the acquisition of Jordan's Bank Audi, strengthening its presence in the Jordanian market and improving operational efficiency. The bank also effectively managed the challenges of merging with Société Générale - Jordan, ensuring a seamless transition and consistent experience for customers.

The core banking solutions contributed to Capital Bank's achievements, elevating operational efficiency. This translated into significant cost savings and operational flexibility, and operations efficiency directly benefiting customers with faster and more accurate transaction processing and immediate service requests, ultimately enhancing customer retention rates.
