COMPLETE CENTRALISED SOLUTION (CCS)
INTRODUCTION
CCS is a banking service offered by a group of networked bank branches. Under this, the bank account may be accessed by the customer from any of the member branch office and can perform basic transactions. CCS banking is generally associated with retail banking. Many commercial banks consider their retail client as their CCS banking clients. CCS banking performs basic activities like depositing and lending of money.
Different types of banking functions such as transaction accounts, loan, mortgages and payments are included in general CCS banking. Banks make these services available to their customers across multiple channels like ATMs, internet banking, mobile banking and branches. CCS banking services largely depend upon computer and network technology to allow a bank to centralize its record keeping and allow access from any location. It has been the development of banking software that has allowed CCS banking solutions to be developed.
MEANING
CCS Banking stands for “Centralized Online Real-time Exchange.” It primarily meant that all the branches of banks could access applications from centralized data centres. It means that the deposit made by the customer has been reflected immediately on the bank’s servers and the customer could withdraw the deposited money from any of the bank’s branches. Hence, a CCS banking system is the software used to support the most common banking transactions.
CCS banking became possible with the advent of computer and telecommunication technology that allowed information to be shared between bank branches quickly and efficiently.
