between Shanghai Commercial Bank Limited (SCB) and Digi-Sign Certification

Banking (CIB) provided by the bank can make use of the Co-branded
digital certificates, Digi-Sign SCB Personal Premium Certificate

can be used to authenticate a wide range of financial transactions
online. Together with CIB, financial management becomes a simple
and convenient task. Customers of CIB can now complete banking
transactions online with just a few clicks at the fingertips.
In 2002, SCB's CIB won the IT Excellence Award presented by the
Hong Kong Computer Society and the panel of judges stated that
SCB is the first bank in Hong Kong to offer a full range of trade
finance functions on the internet. The Partnership between SCB
and Digi-Sign brings together the expertise of the two great organisations
to further enhance the services in the areas of service offerings
and internet security.
