British banking group Standard Chartered has launched its banking-as-a-service solution nexus to offer a suite of private-label products and services to its clients.

Digital platforms and ecosystems like e-commerce, social media, or ride-hailing leverage the new solution to offer loans, credit cards and savings accounts co-developed with the bank to their clients under their own brand name.

The bank noted that it has signed up an e-commerce giant in Indonesia as its first partner.

It expects to co-create and launch products powered by nexus in 2021.

Standard Chartered group CEO Bill Winters said: “nexus is potentially transformational for the bank and our customers.

“We will actively partner with leading consumer platforms in our markets to enable convenient access to financial services to millions of new, tech-savvy customers.
