The Global Premier Re-Launch Programme (HSBC Bank) comprises five Functional Pillars; one of which is International Services. A key tenet of this pillar is the provision of enhanced Internet Banking capabilities to selected customers.These new capabilities comprise four new functional capabilities:1. Provide single view of account balances with other HSBC entities.2. Launch a PIB session from another PIB session 3. Link in a PIB system to a ‘primary’ denominated PIB system.4. Effect me-to-me international transfers.All new capabilities are to be designed as ‘adjuncts’ to existing PIB systems – in other words the customer experience is one where the new capabilities appear as an extension to the existing Internet Banking service rather than a new service for which customers need to register for.
