- Polish IT solutions provider Comarch announced a strategic partnership with DSK Bank.
- The partnership will help accelerate a strategic digitization program the bank launched in 2021.
- Comarch has been a Finovate alum for more than a decade, making its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope 2013 in London.
Comarch, an IT solutions provider and systems integrator based in Poland, has forged a strategic partnership with DSK Bank. The partnership will accelerate the Bulgaria-based financial institution’s ongoing strategic digitalization efforts, which began in earnest in 2021.
“We are delighted to support DSK Bank in achieving its digitalization goals with our cutting-edge IT solutions,” Comarch Group CEE Director Piotr Kusek said. “This partnership underscores our mutual commitment to introducing innovative strategies that will transform the banking landscape and elevate financial services to a new level.”
An international IT business solution provider, Comarch employs 6,400 engineers, business consultants, marketing specialists, and other professionals who help optimize operations and business processes for companies in a wide variety of verticals including telecommunications and financial services. Comarch’s clients include BP Global, Telefónica Global, and Vodafone Germany.
Part of the OTP Banking Group, DSK Bank is Bulgaria’s largest bank. The institution was founded in 1951, and has total assets of more than $15.8 million (€14.74 million). In the spring of 2022, DSK Bank teamed up with another Finovate alum, Backbase, to support its digital transformation efforts.
Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Kraków, Poland, Comarch made its Finovate debut at FinovateEurope 2013. Within a few years, the company reported revenues in excess of PLN 1 billion, hired its 5,000th employee, and opened its 90th worldwide office. Comarch launched its modern financial platform for business, Apfino, in 2021, and unveiled Poland’s first commission-free shopping platform, Wszystko.pl, in 2023.
This year, the IT solutions provider has extended its partnership with Dutch telecommunications operator KPN, teamed up with insurance company P&V Group – which will adopt Comarch’s Employee Benefits solution – and announced a collaboration with UAE-based telecommunications company and ICT player du. Last month, Comarch joined the European Loyalty Association, partnered with charitable organization The Blind Loyalty Trust, and secured accreditation as a Peppol Service Provider in Malaysia.
