 - 2019 was a very good year for Asseco SEE Group. We generated double-digit growth in all three business units of our operations. Such good performance resulted from a growing demand for our digital banking proprietary and e-Commerce solutions, costs optimization and acquisitions within Payment business unit (Payten). Thanks to acquisitions we strengthened our market position within POS related services in the SEE region as well as expanded to new markets – Spanish speaking and CEE. We also enhanced our offer with interesting solutions including SinglePOS independent POS network and the solutions within mobile payments and mobile and web applications’ testing, where I see a big growth potential.
