E-Signatures in Retail Banking: Silanis to Host a Free Live Webcast featuring Independent Research Firm

Posted on by


Montreal, QC (PRWEB) June 12, 2009

Silanis Technology, the leader in e-signature process management, announced today that it will host a free, live webcast with featured guest Forrester Research to discuss the role of e-signatures in e-commerce initiatives. Ellen Carney, Senior Analyst, Technology Industry Strategy at Forrester Research and Michael Laurie, VP of Strategic Development at Silanis, will present an industry update and share best practices for implementing electronic signatures in banking. The 60-minute webcast will take place on Thursday, June 25 at 2:00 pm (EST).

“In the push to make operations more efficient and reduce costs, banks will continue to shed headcount and close branches states a Forrester report entitled North American Bank IT Spending in 2008. That means banks will be looking to make their remaining employees, including the IT organization, even more productive.” In an additional report, Industry Essential: The US Retail Banking Market, Forrester focuses on the impact of technology, “Banks will focus on technology solutions that can better integrate and automate banking business processes, reducing errors and not-in-good order (NIGO) business.”

E-Signature process management solutions offer a strategic way to address these challenges. From consumer loan originations and account openings, to mortgage closings and securitization of assets, e-signatures make it possible for banks to execute transaction paperwork, without the paper. Many leading banks and lending institutions have already adopted e-signatures across multiple product lines, processes and channels, resulting in substantial benefits, including:


Increased back-office processing efficiency
Improved customer experience
Costs savings
Fewer NIGO applications
Increased loan officer productivity
Stronger legal and compliance position

Aimed at line of business executives and IT/IS decision-makers, the presentation will feature:

Adoption trends and drivers
Common challenges in automating customer-facing transactions
Compliance and risk considerations
Real-world examples – Mortgage, Consumer Lending, Securitization
