The MoneyFit service is intended to provide a better view and understanding of my financial activity, budget and profile, to help me improve my own financial decision making, have a greater control over my finances and have access to a number of related products and services of the Bank.

  • identify products and services of the Bank which may be of interest to me, based on my financial activity and goals.

Such information will then be displayed to me in the form of insights (the ‘Insights’). 

The generation and provision of such personalized Insights will cover areas such as, but not limited to:

  • Activity Summary (e.g. Travel summary)
