I am glad that such good financial results of ASEE Group achieved in the third quarter of 2018 are due to a considerable improvement in all business units of the company. In the last quarter we observed increased interest in our security products as well as digital banking solutions. Our expertise in digital banking was recognized by Gartner who listed ASEE as a Representative Vendor in Gartner’s Market Guide for Digital Banking Platforms. We also managed to enter a new geographic market with our PSD2 Enabler Package solution which enables banks to meet requirements of PSD2, which we sold to a bank in Malta. The third quarter of 2018 was also one more quarter of growth in the Payment business unit, especially in POS operations and card processing - commented Piotr Jeleński, President of the Management Board of Asseco South Eastern Europe S.A.
