NCR has been selected as the sole ATM supplier to the bank and isnow starting to deliver the NCR Personas M Series 76, which will seeits first deployment in Belgium. These units enable the bank toquickly and easily introduce image-based, intelligent cash deposittransaction capability, in lieu of envelope deposit.

Some of the new machines are also equipped with cash recyclingfunctionality, popular in certain markets, which accepts, validates,sorts and stores deposited cash, quickly and reliably.
