With over 900 million and counting mobile subscribers in India, RBL is using the IBM's MobileFirst platform to build, deploy, manage its apps and integrate with RBL's core banking system to ensure secure transactions and help the bank improve customer and employee engagement, IBM said in a statement.

"The bank will cater to Millennials' mobile and social lifestyles with new apps to support financial planning, expense calculation, and financial portfolio management," it added.

IBM and RBL will also build a set of internal apps for employees to improve workplace productivity.
