BOC introduced the SmartZone concept in selected branches across the country enabling customers 24 X7 access to banking services. These SamrtZones consist of CDMs and ATMs. 
Addressing the social need of sophisticated and secure digital channels for banking BOC upgraded its online banking facility along with its newest feature “SmartGen” where traditional passbook has been replaced through emails and SMS alerts also enabling the customer to walk into any BOC branch without producing identification to transact as customer image has been stored in the centralized system at the time of opening the account. 

Being more customer-centric BOC opened up its Facebook and twitter account at the end of 2015 enabling its customers to approach and feel the bank more closely.   

BOC was named as the Strongest Bank in the country for the year 2015 by the prestigious “The Asian Banker” and it earned global recognition as one of the top 1000 banks in the world, (Country rank No.1) as listed by “The Banker Magazine” (UK) respectively in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.
