July 10, 2012 - PRLog -- Zafin Labs, a provider of customer-focused banking software solutions, today announced that Bank of the West, a bank operating in 19 Midwestern and Western states in the United States, has selected Zafin Labs’ software to support the bank’s program to provide relationship banking benefits to its customers.

Zafin Labs’ software solution will support Bank of the West’s relationship banking strategy  by providing enhanced tools that will allow the bank to more quickly customize products and bundles, thereby improving features and benefits for the bank’s customers.

“At Bank of the West, we put our customers first.
