Five Degrees - Roel Jansen

Today’s customers want a service that is available from any device, anytime, anywhere in the world, and guarantees a consistent, high quality experience, every time. This is where five°degrees delivers, allowing financial institutions to offer excellent services that match the diverse and rapidly changing needs of their ever more demanding customers.

We strongly believe in the open unified digital banking approach. This approach addresses the financial services distribution challenge by introducing an ‘orchestrating hub’ that is positioned between the front-end and the back-end, while connecting to any outside API, service or application (FinTech Eco system). It is integrated with the front-end channels and core banking applications. It allows front-end channels to be light in terms of functionality and intelligence and it allows core banking applications to be utilized as they are meant to be: reliable transaction processing systems.

The ambition of five°degrees is to become a global leader of open unified digital banking platforms. We are convinced that this ambition can be realized as our product Matrix has the ‘agility’ of highly configurable generic software solutions combined with the ‘banking intelligence’ of the incumbent banking software vendors. Configurability, connectivity and out of the box services are therefore some of the key focus items.

five°degrees is targeting mid-size banks as well as green fields, either new entrants or start-ups initiated by large banks.

We are currently serving operations in the Netherlands, Germany, UK and South America and we are expanding our business towards Belgium, France and the Nordic Countries.
