TowerEvolution: Elevating Innovation in the Financial World

‍

The TowerEvolution project by Towerbank marks a milestone in its journey, representing a bold and proactive response to the challenges of the contemporary financial world. With the rapid growth of Crypto-Friendly Banking and the urgency imposed by the global pandemic, Towerbank committed to reinventing its approach and operations to meet the changing needs of its customers. The initiative focused on implementing a robust and flexible technological architecture, driven by the concept of Open Banking and supported by strategic collaboration with VASS, Impera, AWS, Appian, Mambu, and 2Innovate, among others. The resulting digital platform, built entirely on AWS and with over 500 APIs, facilitates a seamless and frictionless banking experience for both internal and external customers.

‍

TowerEvolution not only enhances operational efficiency but also establishes Towerbank as a benchmark in the financial industry, especially in the realm of Crypto-Friendly Banking. The cultural transformation towards an agile and customer-centric organization has become the core of this initiative, empowering employees to embrace new ways of thinking and key technological competencies. With TowerEvolution, Towerbank not only positions itself as a leader in the industry but is also poised to continue innovating and tackling the challenges of the future of finance.

‍

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all our customers, employees, and partners who have been integral to our journey. Without their ongoing support and commitment to the Bank's vision, this achievement would not have been possible.

Looking ahead, we reaffirm our commitment to remain a leader in financial innovation, providing cutting-edge solutions that drive economic growth and improve the lives of people throughout Latin America.

At Towerbank International, we are excited for what the future holds and eager to continue our journey towards excellence and innovation in the region's financial sector.
