BW-Bank AssetGo: Design and development of an investment app
An app project that implements all the advantages of online trading. From current market data to stock market prices, economic news and transaction options, the smartphone app for Android and iOS provides everything that experienced brokers need, including access to expert knowledge from LBBW Research.
The Challenge
Within Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (LBBW), Baden-Württembergische Bank (BW-Bank) takes over the business areas of private and corporate customer business with a special focus on SME business in Baden-Württemberg.
It also acts as a savings bank for the Landesbank in the state capital of Stuttgart. As part of these tasks, BW Bank offers all types of banking and financial services.
In response to numerous FinTech solutions on the market, BW Bank wanted to implement an innovative mobile solution in the investment sector as part of its digitalization strategy.
