Abstract

An information acquiring device (5) is used for identification of an individual. The information acquiring device (5) provides a choice information among the different choices of configuration. A storage device (6) stores such choice information and the devices (5,6) form a configuration of the interface.

Description

The present invention relates to an interface system.

  More particularly, the invention relates to an interface system with a programmable configuration with multiple choices of access by an individual to

  services offered by a financial organization.

  Financial organizations without a window, i.e. accessible for example from a computer terminal and a communication network,

  are increasingly popular with the public for a variety of reasons.

  However, the interface systems for accessing the services offered

  are still relatively rudimentary, insofar as these are frozen.

  The object of the invention is therefore to solve these problems.

  To this end, the invention relates to an interface system with configurable

  programmable multiple choice access by an individual to pro-

  set by a financial organization, comprising: - means of acquiring information identifying the individual,

  - means of acquiring choice information made by the individual

  from among the different configuration choices offered, - means for storing this choice information, and

  means for configuring the interface system according to this information;

  Choice of stored information, each time the individual accesses the services offered.

  The invention will be better understood with the aid of the description which follows.

  glass, given only by way of example and made with reference to the drawing an-

  attached, which represents a block diagram illustrating an exemplary embodiment

  of an interface system according to the invention.

  In this figure, an interface system has been shown.

  by an individual to services offered by a financial organization.

  In this figure, the financial body is designated by the general reference

  Lane 1 and is equipped with a computer system, one of the main points of which is

  a database designated by the general reference 2.

  This computer system then allows this financial organization to

  manage different services offered for example to the public.

  Access to these services is through a designated interface system

  by the general reference 3, for example from a computer terminal

  hindered by the general reference 4.

  Each individual wishing to connect to the computer system of

  the financial institution can then do so through this computer terminal,

  connected by any information transmission network.

  Of course, other means of exchanging information with the system

  Financial institution IT can be considered.

  According to the invention, the interface system 3 is a configurable system.

  multiple choice programmable tion which includes acquisition means

  information identifying the individual and the means of acquiring information

  choices made by the individual among the different configuration choices

proposed.

  These means are shown schematically by the block designated by the reference

  general 5 in this figure, this block being connected for example to the computer terminal

  4 and to the interface system 3.

  In addition, means are provided for storing information of

  choices made by the individual among the different configuration choices offered.

  These means are designated by the general reference 6 and make it possible to control the configuration of the interface system according to this stored choice information, at

  each individual's access to the services offered.

  This choice information can, for example, include information

  choice of how the individual communicates with the organism

  nancial, the path to the services offered by the organization, the language of communication, the currency used, etc.

  When the individual first accesses the services offered, the organization

  financial nism offers him to customize the interface system according to his

own choices.

  The different possibilities of choice are then presented to the individual who, via his terminal, enters his identification information and

  the different choices he makes among the choices offered.

  Once these different choices have been made, they are stored in the information storage means 6, which makes it possible, during each connection of the individual, to find the choice information stored in order to configure the

interface system.

  It goes without saying of course that other embodiments of this system can be envisaged and that different means of access for the individual to

  the organism can be considered.

  Of course also, choices other than those mentioned above

  can be offered to the individual.

Claims (3)

  1. Programmable configuration interface system with multiple choices of access by an individual to services offered by a financial organization, comprising: - means (5) for acquiring identification information of the individual ,   - means (5) of acquiring choice information produced by the   dividu among the different configuration choices offered, - means (6) for storing this choice information, and - means (5,6) for configuring the interface system (3) according to this stored choice information, each individual's access to the services offered. 2. System according to claim 1, characterized in that one of the   multiple choice proposed concerns the mode of communication with the organization.   3. System according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that one of the multiple choices offered relates to the path to the services offered by the body.
