March 11, 2009
Business News Americas: Privately held Chilean bank BCI says it plans to install around 300 new ATMs this year, says innovations manager Pablo Cousiño. At the end of 2008, BCI had 998 ATMs. At the end of 2007, it had 800 machines. BCI has been heavily expanding its ATM network in the last few years as the ATM has become a strategic channel that improves customer service, reduces costs and helps the bank show customers that it continues to innovate, said Cousiño. BCI for the last couple of years has been moving its ATMs beyond traditional cash-dispensing to multiple functions.
