Standard Chartered Bank launches Internet Banking

"This is part of our commitment to providing the highest possible levels of customer service, together with state of the art technology," said Ray Ferguson, Chief Executive Officer, Standard Chartered Bank, UAE while inaugurating an iBanking kiosk at the bank's main Dubai branch. "It is also fitting that in this, our 150th year of global operations, we are still finding new and innovative ways to communicate with our growing customer base," he added.

This launch coincides with Customer Week - seven days of customer-focused events at Standard Chartered Bank, across the UAE and the globe.

Subroto Som, Regional Head of Consumer Banking, Middle East & South Asia, said the cutting edge web site allows users to view their entire relationship with the bank, transfer funds, make payments, view credit card details, view investment portfolios and apply for banking products.

"Standard Chartered Bank continues to set new benchmarks in both customer service and technological innovation, and the new web site is set to change the way people bank in the UAE forever", added Som.

V. Chandrasekar, Regional Head of Information Technology and Systems, Middle East and South Asia said: "Privacy and security were front of mind when we developed this site, but we also had to ensure the site is user friendly, easy to use, and highly accessible."

In order to take advantage of the new Standard Chartered iBanking facilities, customers can log onto www.standardchartered.com/ae and complete an electronic iBanking application form, or print the form, complete it and submit it in person to any of the Banks' branches across the UAE, or post it to: Standard Chartered Bank, Centralised Operations, PO Box 999, Dubai, UAE.
