We're awarding the Best Digital Transformation to the team at ANB for completing one of the most ambitious core banking upgrades in the Saudi market. Over a 21-month programme, ANB migrated millions of customer records to Infosys Finacle version 11x - with minimal downtime.

Core banking migrations are the unglamorous backbone of digital transformation. They don't make for exciting press releases, but they determine everything that follows. Without a modern core, every digital initiative - from mobile apps to API platforms to AI - is constrained by legacy architecture. ANB has removed that constraint.

The scale of the migration - millions of records across retail, corporate, and treasury - and the fact that it was delivered with minimal disruption to customers demonstrates strong programme management and technical execution.

Congratulations to the whole team at ANB.
