Payment Control Optimised
Core-Payments®: Real-time, enterprise-wide monitoring and control over outgoing payments and settlement flows
Proven and being used in production by a tier 1 bank
Outgoing Payment Control
Banks are under increased pressure to increase payment controls so they can minimise risk, optimise cash returns and make smarter funding decisions. However siloed, fragmented data, and manual post-trade processes generate challenges. Many struggle to aggregate and analyse the relevant, real-time data needed, and access the capabilities required, to effectively control outgoing payments. This leads to settlements driven by queue order, not safety or optimisation, increasing payment, liquidity, and settlement risks.
The Core-Payments® suite of modules is a scaleable solution designed to help banks manage and control outgoing payments, settlements, and intraday liquidity risks while optimising performance. Leveraging real-time enterprise-wide payments intelligence and detailed historical insights to power smart, automated and customisable workflows, alerts, and controls banks can efficiently execute safer automated, conditional and optimised settlements.
The result: Enterprise-wide payment and settlement oversight and control, enhanced operational resilience, increased agility, the ability to proactively mitigate risk and optimise funding strategies.
