A total of four members of the bank’s group executive committee were involved in the initiative.
BNP Paribas said it will utilize collaboration with Google to enhance its teams’ understanding of current practices, as well as their technical expertise and command of new communication formats suited to mobile technologies, which already accounts for nearly 15% of the group’s investment with Google.
The cooperative agreement with Google will support the digitisation of the bank’s business and open up new horizons, especially in the use of public Twitter data, BNP Paribas said.
Through the partnership with Facebook, the lender aims boost its digital, social and mobile offering and benefit from an international communication platform.
