State Bank of India (SBI) has launched its digital banking app YONO in the UK, marking its global launch.

SBI Chairman Rajnish Kumar unveiled the app at an exclusive event hosted in coordination with the UK India Business Council (UKIBC) in London on Monday.

"YONO SBI UK is one of the highlights of SBI's technological capabilities. I am delighted to launch YONO for our UK customers, after its success in India," said Kumar.

"I am sure the easy-to-use features and refreshing design will ensure that the app offers a positive customer experience and showcases bank's strong focus on digital banking," he said.

Available on both the Apple's App Store and Google Play Store, YONO SBI UK is described as an enhanced mobile app which is "simple, intuitive, and user friendly" for customers to carry out almost all their banking needs. After the UK, the app will begin being launched by SBI at its other operations worldwide.

Richard Heald, UKIBC Group CEO, said: "It is exciting to see how passionate SBI is in its determination to deliver innovative technological products for its customers, particularly here in the UK which has a large Indian diaspora."
