  • UOB Pilots Digital Signature Authorization

    UOB Pilots Digital Signature Authorization

    The initiative will remove one of the roadblocks – the need for physical signatures – in fully digitalizing the documentation process.

    UOB is starting a 12-month trial to test the use of Government Technology Agency’s (GovTech) Sign with Singpass among its retail and corporate customers, which will be used to confirm transactions such as individual wealth planning services and the PayNow Corporate application using a customer’s digital signature, the bank announced on Thursday.

    The features feature enables customers to use Singpass – the digital identity for Singapore residents that is identifiable and uniquely linked to the user – to sign electronic documents digitally via the Singpass app.

    The bank said it is pushing this innovation as research shows that COVID-19 has accelerated the move to online services, with more than 65 percent of customers expecting banking services to be digital by default.

    The change in customer expectations and experience during COVID-19 has made it imperative that we explore and extend our digital capabilities across more of our financial services and products, Susan Hwee, UOB head of group technology and operations, said in the announcement.

    UOB plans to expand the service to include more of its products and services for both the retail and wholesale segments in Singapore, and to expand its electronic signature capability to the region from 2022.

    One benefit from the move to e-signatures is its reduction of paper usage – more than 2 million multi-page hardcopy documents each year, which in turn will save more than 700 trees per year, once rolled out across its markets.

  • Google adds support for multiple signatures in Gmail

    Google adds support for multiple signatures in Gmail

    Google revealed earlier today that a new feature is coming to Gmail that allows users to create and use multiple signatures. It’s a nifty feature that makes it easier for Gmail users to adapt to any situation when it comes to sending emails that require different signatures.

    To make use of the new feature, which Google says will be available by default, simply create multiple signatures by heading to Gmail’s Settings / General. From there, choose Signature / Create New, and you should be able to create multiple signatures.

    Creating multiple signatures is easy, but let’s see how you can put them to good use. After you create at least two signatures, you’ll be able to switch between them by opening the signature menu in the compose action toolbar.

    Google announced the support for multiple signatures in Gmail will be rolled out starting today and may take up to two weeks to reach all devices. The new feature is available for all G Suite users, as well as Gmail users with personal Google Accounts.

  • Singtel partners with DocuSign for digital signatures

    Singtel partners with DocuSign for digital signatures

    Singtel and DocuSign have partnered to launch a cloud solution that allows for faster document authorization and more effective tracking through the use of electronic signatures.

    The solution is aimed at businesses undergoing digital transformation that need to upgrade their workflows and approval processes and keep digital records of them.

    The DocuSign solution will be available via Singtel’s SaaS portal. It aims to offer organizations the convenience of approving documents within minutes. Electronic documents and signatures can be electronically tracked from signatory to signatory, and protected against tampering.

    The solution also attaches to each document an electronic Certification of Completion seal that is admissible in court as it captures the audit trail of the signatories’ Internet Protocol addresses, time stamps and sequence of ownership.

    The passing of the Electronics Transaction Act 2010 in Singapore supports the adoption of e-documents and e-signatures.

    As the exclusive retailer reseller of DocuSign in Singapore, Singtel provides a single, dedicated local point of support to help organizations deploy the solution, with no software or hardware solution required.

    Small and medium-sized enterprises that deploy the DocuSign solution are eligible to receive tax deductions under the Government’s Productivity and Innovation Credit scheme.

    The United World College of South East Asia (UWCSEA), an international school in Singapore, has started using DocuSign to improve its staff hiring and student admission processes.

    Ben Morgan, UWCSEA’s IT Director, said, “UWCSEA is constantly exploring ways to deliver better value to families, and attracting the very best teachers from around the world. Shifting from paper-based to digital documents will reduce the time taken to complete some tasks by weeks, reduce the costs and environmental impact, as well as significantly reduce administrative workloads.”

    Industry analyst Statista estimated that the global digital transaction management market is expected to grow from $13.93 billion in 2017 to $30.66 billion in 2020.
