The SME/MSME lending has an immense potential in India considering the significant contribution of this segment to the Indian GDP . A large part of the SME segment is still under-served in their credit requirement that inhibits their growth. YES BANK recognised this opportunity and identified it as one of the core pillars of their Banking strategy.

The Bank envisaged COLORS (Commercial Loan Origination System), a comprehensive Credit Origination solution, for faster on-boarding of commercial loans, improving productivity, and to economize the Turn-Around-Time (TAT) of the origination lifecycle, helping them stay ahead of competition.

YES BANK chose Intellect Commercial Loan Origination System (called CBX-O) for the digital transformation journey of the COLORS project in the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) customer segments. The platform, designed and built on a cloud-native API-first micro-services architecture, ensures a contextual business experience and seamless scalability.
