In an attempt to help stay agile and competitive in the dynamic financial landscape, AIB is extending its strategic partnership with Infosys.

The collaboration will build on their existing 10-year relationship, utilise agile methodologies and AI-powered tools to enhance efficiency and strengthen AIB’s operational efficiency and customer-centric delivery.

Graham Fagan, Group Chief Technology Officer at AIB, explains: "This extended collaboration with Infosys aligns strongly with our vision to progressively modernise our technology and data capabilities to deliver the best outcomes for our customers and further accelerate our transformation.

“By combining our collective expertise and experience, we will deliver on our customer-first commitment and enhance operational efficiency and resilience. 

“Infosys has been a trusted innovation partner and we are excited about this next chapter in our collaboration as we work together to ensure AIB remains at the forefront of digital transformation in the Irish banking industry."

What does the extended partnership include?

The extended partnership between AIB and Infosys will enhance AIB’s business and technology transformation through:

Application development and maintenance

Infosys will ensure that AIB’s systems are secure, up to date and aligned with its changing business and customer needs to maintain the bank’s application landscape.

Use of AI-powered tooling

Infosys will automate and enhance maintenance processes and software development by deploying AI-based tools. This will  improve speed, accuracy and scalability.

Operational efficiency improvements

The extended partnership will help AIB to reduce operational friction and improve internal efficiencies through streamlined delivery models and automation.

Support for resilience and innovation

Strengthening its organisational resilience and innovation capabilities will equip AIB to thrive in the dynamic banking environment.

Dennis Gada, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Banking & Financial Services at Infosys, explains: "Our expanded collaboration with AIB marks a significant milestone in Infosys’ journey in Ireland. By leveraging our global digital engineering teams and proven track record in delivery and innovation, we will enable AIB to continue accelerating its business and technology transformation, strongly positioning them for success in a rapidly evolving banking environment. 

“We are committed to fostering a strong relationship, nurturing talent and contributing to Ireland’s thriving tech ecosystem while delivering impactful outcomes for AIB.”

What impact will this have on the wider technology landscape?

The extended partnership between AIB and Infosys is expected to have a prominent impact on the financial services and technology landscape.

As Infosys continues to widen its presence in Ireland, the partnership will enhance the country’s growing role as a leader in digital innovation and IT services.

Investment in digital delivery, local talent and collaboration could attract further technological investments. 

Traditional banking organisations can look to this partnership as an example of how AI-powered tooling in application development can automate routine tasks, modernise legacy systems and enhance service delivery.

Not only could AIB encourage other legacy organisations to adopt agile practices to enhance responsiveness, but the success of this extended partnership demonstrates the value of strategic IT collaborations. This could motivate other enterprises and banks to work alongside tech providers to form transformative partnerships.

The Infosys-AIB partnership demonstrates how large financial organisations can scale digital transformation effectively and navigate changing regulatory environments.
