BankID – a term you hear more and more often from all sides. The vision of BankID is to become a common means of online authentication and electronic signature in the Czech Republic. The BankID service is used to electronically identify individuals with a wide range of uses such as logging in, authentication, signing or even transmitting KYC data.

In short, BankID will become an integral part of the digitalisation of services. Clients will use the same means to access service or product provider environments as they use to log into online banking. This will entail faster, more secure and, most importantly, cheaper client onboarding and automatic updating of client data. The actual logging in of clients to the service or product provider environment will become very intuitive and simple.

AMI Praha a. s. as a traditional supplier of IT solutions focused on electronic identity, which includes identity and access management, privileged access management, KYC processes, forms of biometric authentication, etc., will now offer consulting and integration services in the area of BankID.

Petr Urban, Chairman of the Board of Directors of AMI Praha a. s., commented on this event by saying: “The partnership with Bank Identity a. s. fits right into our portfolio, bringing added value to our customers in the form of new capabilities in federated authentication, KYC and digital signing. Expanding our services in this direction is perfectly in line with our long-term strategy and strengthens our position among the technological leaders of the Czech market in the sphere of electronic identity.”
