A WNS Perspective

Summary

WNS-Vuram co-created a digital, rule-based onboarding platform using Appian to modernize customer acquisition for a leading Middle Eastern bank.

WNS-Vuram collaborated with a leading banking and financial services company to digitize Know Your Customer (KYC) / Anti-Money Laundering (AML) workflows, automate risk classification and enable real-time data exchange across systems. The engagement identified potential compliance gaps stemming from manual processes and helped implement a modular, low-code solution to drive agile onboarding, strengthen compliance and enhance customer experience.

The Challenge

Manual Processes. Compliance Gaps. Fractured Customer Journeys.

The bank’s existing onboarding process was manual, paper-based and fragmented across branches, resulting in:

  • Long onboarding timelines
  • Operational inefficiencies and inconsistent AML checks
  • Poor customer experience
  • Lack of digital self-service options

The Solution

Low-code Automation Meets Rule-based Orchestration

WNS-Vuram designed and delivered a phased transformation on the Appian low-code platform. The co-created solution featured:

  • Digital onboarding workflows with real-time document upload and verification
  • Dynamic AML risk classification engine to automate decision-making
  • Seamless MuleSoft integration with external systems for live data validation
  • Rule-based orchestration to guide processing logic for various customer types

The Future-ready Shift

Digital onboarding is not just a process upgrade; it’s a customer experience differentiator. By combining low-code agility with intelligent workflow design, WNS-Vuram helped the bank launch a scalable onboarding model that is faster and more compliant.
