Capco supports Concentra Bank with digital process automation


Capco, a digital consultancy focusing on the financial services sector, has added Concentra Bank to its list of clients for PlatformZeroSM, a cloud-based, digital and automation solution.

Founded in 2005 through the combination of SaskCentral and Cooperative Trust, Concentra delivers wholesale banking and trust solutions to credit unions in Canada.

Concentra became a Schedule 1 bank in 2017, and is the 13th largest such bank in Canada. As of 2017, the bank had $9.4 billion in assets and served over 85% of Canadian credit unions. Headquartered in Saskatoon, Concentra has further offices in Regina, Toronto, and Surrey, and has more than 300 employees.

Concentra will now leverage Capco’s new PlatformZeroSM solution, which is designed to increase efficiency and streamline back-office processes – freeing up staff and other resources.
