Convenient account opening process with diversified services to help SMEs seize business opportunities

Fusion Bank Business Banking online account opening service now supports the following types of companies incorporated in Hong Kong: sole proprietorship, partnership, and single-layered limited company, whose “connected parties” must be HKID holders and open or maintain Fusion Bank personal accounts. SMEs who meet the Bank’s requirements can submit account application online anytime, anywhere through Fusion Bank’s website with approval in as fast as 24 hours, saving time compared to the traditional service model which often takes months. Finally, there is no minimum deposit requirement lowering the entry barriers to banking for SMEs.

Leveraging advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based technologies, Fusion Bank Business Banking provides customers with a more seamless, secure banking experience, including online smart customer services to handle enquiries in real time, as well as the adoption of eKYC identity authentication technology jointly developed by Tencent and Fusion Bank which substantially improves the accuracy of facial and image recognition. With the new technology, the False Acceptance Rate and Straight Through Rate have been improved, while the number of facial captures needed for ID verification decreased, bringing a smoother online account opening experience to our customers.
