The Express Banking Centres will allow customers to perform a range of banking operations independently and securely. A customer can walk into any of these Centres, withdraw or deposit cash, place a request for a statement or cheque book, execute a mobile recharge or pin change and transfer funds. An LCD monitor will display key customer information. For more information or follow-up services, a customer can pick up the phone and speak with a phone banking officer.

According to Mr. Srinivasan, the Bank’s model has always been relationship focused, with the aim of providing a whole gamut of services to customers and not stop at one. In an effort to enrich the relationship that the Bank shares with its customers, Standard Chartered Bank has gone beyond just providing ATMs. “The next time you step inside an ATM you might be pleasantly surprised. We promise to give you more than just cash in a comfortable and luxurious environment” Srinivasan adds.
