Large Bank (Intranet)
Overview
- Branded header and hero: the bank’s name, logo, and color palette carry across the whole intranet
- Countdown and Bank News: employees stay ahead of the dates that matter – conversion weekends, fraud alerts, product launches, and benefits deadlines
- Our Locations: a World Clock showing the current time in the bank’s New York, Chicago, London, and Singapore offices
- Performance at a Glance: deposits by quarter, Net Promoter Score by line of business, and branch service requests by channel as clean, readable charts
- Lines of Business: tiles linking out to Consumer Banking, Commercial Banking, Small Business Banking, Wealth and Private Banking, Home Lending, and Treasury Management
- Everyday Tools: the links branch and operations staff open daily – rate sheets, the loan origination system, branch procedures, wire cutoff times, scheduling, and the IT service desk
- Risk and Compliance: a referral tile for unusual activity, alongside upcoming events, executive leadership profiles, a CEO video message, and a headquarters map
Benefits
- One place to start: branch, operations, and corporate teams open one page instead of hunting through email and shared drives
- Nothing sneaks up on anyone: conversion weekends, enrollment deadlines, and training dates are visible the moment the intranet loads
- Compliance front and center: an unusual activity referral becomes a one-click action rather than a policy nobody can find
- Shared view of performance: frontline staff see the same deposit, NPS, and service channel numbers leadership sees
- Built for multiple time zones: teams line up calls and cutoff times without doing the math
- Visible leadership: a CEO video message and executive profiles keep leadership present during a large change program
- Easy to maintain: everything is standard SharePoint, so the bank’s own team can update news, events, links, and people without a developer
Common Questions About This Large Bank Intranet
What is this large bank intranet built with?
It is built entirely with standard SharePoint web parts – News, Countdown Timer, World Clock, Chart, Events, Video, and Bing Maps – finished with a custom theme and custom fonts in the bank’s own colors. There is no custom code and no third-party tooling anywhere on the page. It is the kind of clean, maintainable intranet Greg Zelfond builds for banks and financial institutions.
What is included on the large bank homepage?
The homepage opens with a branded header and hero banner, then a conversion countdown, Bank News, and a world clock covering the bank’s New York, Chicago, London, and Singapore offices. Below that sit performance charts, Lines of Business tiles, an Everyday Tools link list, a Risk and Compliance referral tile, upcoming events, executive leadership profiles, a CEO video message, and a headquarters map.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Every section is a standard SharePoint web part configured out of the box. That keeps the intranet stable, secure, and easy for the bank’s own team to maintain, and it means nothing breaks when Microsoft ships an update. For a regulated institution it also keeps the internal review and approval conversation simple. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg builds.
Can this design be customized for our bank?
Absolutely. The color palette, fonts, logo, imagery, and section names are all tailored to the bank. Lines of Business tiles get rewritten around the real business units, the quick links point at the actual rate sheets, origination system, and procedures manual, and the charts reflect the metrics leadership already reports. Greg adapts the layout to how the bank is organized.
Will this intranet work on phones and tablets?
Yes. Because the page is built with standard SharePoint web parts and flexible sections, it reflows automatically on phones and tablets and in the SharePoint mobile app. Branch staff and relationship managers who are away from a desk still get the news, the countdown, the everyday tools, and the compliance referral button, with no separate mobile build to maintain.
Can Greg build this intranet for our bank?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box intranets like this one for banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions, then trains the internal team to keep it current.
