金雅拓携手亚洲RBS 在印尼、台湾和印度推行EMV迁移

2009年3月24日，北京——金雅拓日前宣布已经接受苏格兰皇家银行(RBS)的委托，在亚洲三大市场（印尼、台湾和印度）推行微处理器EMV（Europay、Master卡、VISA）信用卡迁移。首个项目已于2008年10月在印尼启动，台湾和印度的项目将紧跟其后，项目涉及将该银行的传统磁条卡转换成EMV卡。金雅拓为RBS提供一系列完整产品和服务，包括个人化服务及项目管理 。项目的顺利实施创造了三个月完成项目的记录，而通常亚洲的行业平均时间为5-6个月，为RBS节省了实际运营成本。两家公司共同在创记录的短时间内完成了迁移项目的最初阶段。

减少金融欺诈是亚洲RBS承诺进行EMA迁移的主要动力。根据印尼信用卡协会的统计数据，印尼的信用卡欺诈金额2007年达到350亿卢比（约230万欧元）。金雅拓已经为印尼四大银行中的三家银行成功完成了EMV卡迁移，远远早于印尼银行规定的2010年的期限。

印尼RBS 消费者金融主管Dessy Masri表示：“EMV 迁移对于信用卡业务非常重要，因为这不仅是中央银行的要求，也是增强安全防范欺诈的需求。我们非常高兴我们在印尼的换卡过程所用时间比预期缩短很多。因此我们有能力更快向我们的客户推出EMV卡，为客户提供更多便利和安全。这样的成绩只有通过金雅拓的服务才可能实现，金雅拓在印度和亚洲地区具有丰富的相关经验，是EMV迁移解决方案的行业领先者。”

金雅拓亚洲区总裁陈帝利表示：“我们非常高兴能够与RBS合作，RBS也相信我们有能力管理他们的各个关键市场的迁移项目。我们在全世界EMV迁移项目方面具有丰富经验，这让我们完全能够利用我们的独特EMV专业技能和全球声誉成功地领导该项目。”

According to the Indonesian Credit Card Association, credit card fraud in the country amounted to 35 billion rupiah (approximately 2.3 million Euro) in 2007. Gemalto has already successfully completed the migration to EMV cards for 3 in 4 banks in Indonesia, well ahead of the 2010 migration mandate set by the Bank of Indonesia.

Dessy Masri, Head of Consumer Finance, RBS Indonesia commented, “EMV migration is important to the card business as it is not only a requirement from the Central Bank but also it has enhanced security against fraud. We are extremely pleased that our re-carding process in Indonesia took a much shorter time than expected, so we are able to start the roll-out of the cards to our customers sooner, giving them more convenience and security. And this was only possible with the service of Gemalto as the industry leader in EMV migration solutions and the company’s extensive experience in Indonesia, as well as the region”.

Tan Teck Lee, President, Gemalto Asia added, “We are extremely pleased to be able to work with RBS who have placed their trust in us to manage the migration project across their key markets.
