Aktia Bank Plc and Elisa Plc have signed an agreement
for a long-term partnership, through which Elisa will
take charge of a part of
Aktia’s IT and network management
services. The agreement will take effect on 1 June
2023, and it has been drawn up for the
next five years, after which it can be extended. The cooperation
supports Aktia's strategic goal
of being the leading wealth manager bank in Finland.
Through the agreement 22 work assignments within Aktia’s IT and
network management services will be transferred to Elisa. The
experts in charge of these duties will in connection with the
business transfer be transferred as old employees to Elisa Plc as
of 1 June 2023.
“The partnership with Elisa forms part of the implementation of
Aktia’s IT strategy. It secures the availability and competence of
IT personnel and ensures for its part that Aktia’s services will
comply with the tightening regulation and risk management demands
in the finance sector. The aim of the partnership now initiated is
to improve the availability, continuity and stability of Aktia’s IT
services, and to develop the service production in order to better
meet Aktia’s current and future needs”, says Sari
Leppänen, Chief Information Officer at Aktia.
When selecting a partner, the emphasis was on Elisa’s competence
and experience of corresponding partnerships as a pioneer in the IT
industry.
“Actors in the finance sector are like Elisa socially critical
actors, which makes our cooperation with Aktia natural. As Aktia’s
long-term 5G subscription partner we will take charge of the
company's IT and network management services as a whole and ensure
the functioning of the services in the best way possible both now
and going forward. Elisa is a dynamic Finnish pioneer within IT
with strengths in data security, artificial intelligence and
automation. By transferring IT and network management services to
Elisa Aktia will be able to concentrate more on its core competence
in its operations”, says Timo
Katajisto, Executive Vice President, Corporate
Customers at Elisa Plc.
