Mohammed Kateeb, the Group Chairman & CEO of Path Solutions said, “To make informed choices, businesses today need to base their decisions on evidence. The mountains of data that financial institutions and their customers produce is colossal. By aggregating, standardizing, and analyzing that data and identifying patterns, they can better understand their customers, better forecast revenue growth, and better protect themselves against business pitfalls. As such, we are delighted to have completed the successful implementation of iMAL*BI using Microsoft Power BI at BBS - a deployment that forms a central part of the bank’s increasing focus on innovation by using top-notch intelligent solutions to support its growth objectives”.
