Romanian Savings Bank Joins the Plastic Revolution Thanks to HP

Overview The Romanian Savings Bank known as CEC (Casa de Economii si Consemnatiuni) is the country's oldest savings bank and has over 1,400 branches serving some 2.8 million customers. CEC wanted a turnkey solution and issued an integrated tender for an ATM network with 135 machines. To capitalise on its many branches it also included 1,000 Point Of Sale (POS) machines as well as back office systems to support, at that time, a single Visa Electron card. To achieve this exciting new business development, CEC needed a trusted partner with a reputation for providing quality solutions to the financial services industry. It chose HP.
