Diebold Nixdorf has implemented its Branch Automation Solution suite for FOREX. This move will enable the Nordic foreign exchange specialist to manage its entire ATM network through a single, end-to-end platform.
Diebold Nixdorf's Branch Automation Solution integrates SMART Managed Services, which uses artificial intelligence to optimize uptime, maintain security and compliance, and handle high-availability transaction processing across nearly 90 ATMs located in train stations, shopping centers, airports, and other busy public spaces throughout Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Denmark.
For a financial institution like FOREX that serves over five million customers annually, having a unified ecosystem means that hardware, software, security protocols, and transaction routing all work together seamlessly. This, in turn, reduces the risk of machine downtime or service interruptions.
