"Since the strategic partnership was established in 2005, it has strengthened our presence in the Baltic region and is allowing customers to take advantage of our complementary skills to provide more powerful integrated solutions and differentiate themselves in the marketplace.

Implementation of the Cortex platform will begin in August 2007, with the aim to be fully operational at Aizkraukles Bank by the end of 2007.
