Clarien Bank and Age Concern will begin working in partnership to help Bermuda’s senior population adapt to digital banking at Clarien Bank. Age Concern volunteers will work alongside the Clarien client service team to help guide and educate its senior clients that feel they need a little extra help banking using digital, automated and self-service methods. From completing iATM transactions, using internet banking to opening a new account online, Bermuda’s seniors will be able to receive personalised support in changing how they manage their finances and spending.
“We are excited about our partnership with Age Concern,” Clarien Chief Banking Officer Simon Van de Weg said. “We understand that digital banking may seem daunting to some and particularly so in our community of seniors. We are proud to partner with an organisation that shares our commitment to empowering our senior population to improve their total banking experience. Working collaboratively with Age Concern volunteers, we will help our senior clients to build their capability in using our digital banking solutions. We recently launched our new Point House location where tablet devices are available for use by those who may not have them.”
“Switching the way you bank can be difficult, yet in the age of online and digital banking, is becoming more and more necessary,” Age Concern Business Development Manager Callan Bassett said. “Age Concern is happy to be a part of the effort to shift Clarien customers to their digital banking platform. This way, we can help ensure that the experiences of customers aged 50+ remain the main focus, throughout this transition.”
