Version 7.0 is the newest version of the PROFITS? Core Banking System with a significant number of installations in Banks in Greece and abroad. It has important innovative features and rich and comprehensive functionality in its basic subsystems. It has been enriched with new execution mechanisms, new online / real time features, as well as with a number of new subsystems, fully covering the needs of a modern Bank through an integrated approach. Some of the innovative features are the following:
- Rule-based Architecture
- Full support of Product Packages

The new version PROFITS? v. 7.0, with 24/7 transaction uninterrupted operation, is a state-of-the-art tool for the Banks, offering flexibility, optimizing internal business processes and reducing operational costs, thus drastically improving customer service.
International Consulting Evaluators have ranked PROFITS? v. 7.0 as a Core Banking Platform of the Future, having evaluated as "impressive" its new and improved capabilities.
With the new version PROFITS? v. 7.0, GENIKI Bank will enhance its capability of instant response to emerging opportunities, by designing and offering rapidly new and innovative products and services to its customers, thus reducing significantly the cost and the time to market. This will be achieved through the new "rule-based" system architecture that provides the Bank with the capability to define new functionalities, reporting, payments and interfaces with the use of business rules. These rules are applied and can dynamically change, according to Bank policy, without programming and changes to the source code of the system.
Mr. Dimitris Papadakis - CIO, GENIKI Bank, stated: 'GENIKI BANK, within its continuous efforts towards improving customer satisfaction, optimizing internal processes and reducing costs, considers this project as a major next step to its long-standing use of the PROFITS© Core Banking System. The strategic partnership with INTRACOM IT SERVICES ensures the success of the project, based on the mutual efforts for customer-oriented approach, the expertise as well as the very good collaboration until now".
Mr. Andreas Diamanteas - General Manager, Financial & Enterprise Solutions Division, INTRACOM IT SERVICES, said: "After 14 years of successful cooperation with GENIKI Bank and productive use of the PROFITS? system, we see this new assignment as a vote of confidence to PROFITS? v. 7.0. We strongly believe that the use of a modern and technologically advanced Core Banking system, such as PROFITS? v7.0, will strengthen the Bank even more, by increasing its competitiveness and improving its quality of service, while reducing considerably the time to market."
