Re-evolution of Customer Service With the Debut of the Smart Tai Mei

  • In order to improve service quality; to respond to the trend towards digitization of financial services; and to quickly answer customer’s real-time inquiries, the Bank has launched the chatbot agent "Smart Tai Mei". Through the Bank’s service channels such as the main website, online banking, and mobile banking app, customers may click on the "Smart Tai Mei" avatar to open a dialog window - 24 hours a day. Questions can be asked at any time, and a live text service agent is also available every Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Friendly Financial Services Upgraded; Adding Voice ATMs for the Visually Impaired

  • In order to meet the needs of visually impaired customers, provide more convenient and friendly financial services, and implement the principle of fair hospitality and care for disadvantaged groups, the Bank has set up 20 voice ATMs throughout Northern, Central and Southern Taiwan. These provide a more user-friendly environment and functions for our visually impaired customers to operate with peace of mind and to facilitate transfer and withdrawal of funds, thus further upgrading the Bank’s friendly financial services.

  • The Bank recognizes the necessity of providing visually impaired customers with easy access to our voice ATMs. In line with our annual replacement plan, the Bank plans to increase the number of voice ATMs to 85 in the next five years. This will enable our visually impaired customers to experience safer, more convenient, and friendlier inclusive financial services at ATMs.

Focusing on Climate Change; Signing on as a Supporter of the TCFD Initiative

Signing on as a TCFD Supporter

  • The Bank has signed on as a supporter of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) issued by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) in June 2022. The Bank is actively responding to the risks and opportunities brought about by climate change, and continues paying attention to climate change issues.

TCFD Disclosure

  • The Bank implements effective management of climate change through the Sustainable Development Execution Team, and applies climate risk- and opportunity- governance to the management of corporate operations. At present, in accordance with the TCFD team’s recommendations, the Bank has presented the four cores – governance; strategy; risk management; and indicators & goals – in our 2021 Sustainability Report.

Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report

  • The Bank began to issue our Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report in 2018. Through external verification in the BSI Greenhouse Gas Inventory, the Bank inventoried our head office buildings (Minquan Building and Minzu Building), South Taichung Branch (including dormitory), and Staff Training Center (including Taiping Branch), which are mainly used as office buildings and server space. The Bank also continues complying with the government's green energy development policy by adding solar photovoltaic systems to the top floors of some buildings.

The Bank does all this to implement low-carbon operations and environmental sustainability, and continues to strengthen our focus on ESG issues.
