OREANDA-NEWS. May 14, 2010. Keeping in step with our clients' business requirements and recognising the need for financial solutions in line with a modern business environment, SEB banka has prepared and offers a new version of electronic payment system for companies – Telebanka. The new SEB Telebanka is based on a much more advanced technological platform, ensuring new opportunities for company efficiency and an up-to-date design, reported the press-centre of SEB banka.

SEB Telebanka is an electronic payment system that enables remote handling of company accounts from your office. It is especially suited to large companies and customers with a large volume of payments. SEB Telebanka provides a number of functions that facilitate and speed up the payment processing and is easily compatible with any accounting software.

Member of the Board of SEB banka Kaspars Delins: "The priority of SEB is to ensure the highest quality financial services to the customers. The events in the global economy in recent years have also changed the Latvian business environment. Companies are reassessing their operation with the aim of becoming more efficient and competitive. This is also reflected by the data of SEB banka, which shows that the number of electronic payments in Telebanka has increased by 6% during the last year. It means that the customers use their time efficiently and increasingly use the electronic services offered by the bank for their financial management. The new version of SEB Telebanka is made bearing in mind the requirements of our customers and it will definitely be a great support for financial department of companies in their everyday work.

"Everyday work in a large company cannot be pictured without modern, customer-oriented bank services. So far we have been using the new version of SEB Telebanka for a short time only, but I can already say that the bank's experts have made it very customer-friendly – fast, comprehensive and convenient," says the deputy chief accountant of AS Rigas Piena kombinats Zinaida Murniece. "As we work not only in Latvia, but also abroad, we very much appreciate that European (SEPA) payments have been introduced. Since we started using the new Telebanka, we have to visit the bank much less frequently – we can do everything online."

Chief accountant of AS Tallink Latvija Ginta Ratniece: "The new Telebanka from SEB banka currently provides all functions and technical solutions that an accountant may wish for. I am also very satisfied with the service and support from the bank, knowing that I can always address their experts and resolve questions and receive recommendations for more convenient use of Telebanka. Using the new SEB Telebanka on a daily basis, I have been convinced that it is convenient, fast, comprehensive and, more importantly, very simple to use."

In addition to the previously available functions, the new SEB Telebanka offers the customers new options: new payment form for SEPA or European payments, account statements with electronic signature, as well as importing payments and exporting account statements in MS Excel format.

There are also significant improvements to the convenience of the existing functions: easier and faster payments between one's own accounts in SEB banka, the option to define payments with postponed completion date (up to 180 days), the option to use bank catalogue, which facilitates SEPA (European) and SWIFT (international) payments. Bearing in mind the requirements of the financial department employees of companies, the new SEB Telebanka offers very clear payment order signatures and extended use rights management. The customers also have appreciated the new, up-to-date and convenient design of SEB Telebanka.
