When I saw the screenshot of the app I first thought, "that's Swing". But then I saw that tick mark and I thought, holy moley oculd that be the tick mark from Borland (e.g. OWL)? https://sourceforge.net/p/owlnext/wiki/Replacing_usage_of_BW...

Someone on ars said its Delphi. But I don't have a ton of faith in ars commenters.

That green check was in Borland Delphi too.

That scroll bar is an Oracle scroll bar - you can see it in the GUI installer for the RDBMS (and in all Oracle Java apps). The Borland-like checkmark button can be something Citi-specific or just a developer who liked Borland enough to import the graphic into the app's UI.

When the 3D look became the norm for Windows apps, introduced by Office and, later, by Windows 3.1 (or 3.11), I used the DLL to 3D-fy my Windows app dialogs automagically. I also took some liberties with using Office graphic elements reasoning that a Windows or Office user would know the 3.5" floppy saves things.

Yes, it looks like OWL framework which was bundled with Borland C++. Google Image Search for "borland c++ owl" yields more screenshots in the similar visual style.

Most probably not Borland. That scrollbar looks like Swing.
