Payments & E-Payments Webinars

End-to-end visibility, for both payments and securities, a recurring and resounding ideal that has particularly positive ramifications within the context of cross-border transactions is the key ambition of the payments and securities industry. This concept entails enabling all transaction stakeholders to comprehensively monitor the entire payment and securities settlement journey, from initiation to completion and reconciliation. By ensuring transparency regarding transaction status, particulars, fees, intermediaries, and potential obstacles, end-to-end visibility emerges as a cornerstone for navigating the complexities of modern global financial transactions.Due to the already busy road maps for financial institutions, the ambition of comprehensive control and transparency can only be achieved by the industry working together and using the expertise of trusted third-party providers. All too often, financial institutions try to juggle multiple projects and mandatory implementations themselves without having the in-house resources, and expertise. The end goal is to support efficiency through digital payments, securities settlement transformation, and corporate action flow, especially with the market drive towards real-time transactions for an improved customer experience. However, it will be those players that solve for the foundational elements of success —precise data, exception management, visibility, scalability, high availability, robust and flexible infrastructure, and collaborative partnerships—that will realise the fastest route to achieving the holy grail of end-to-end financial transaction visibility.• Swift connectivity via SaaS vs. On-Premise• Achieving end-to-end visibility with reconciliation• Managing corporate actions• Reducing failure in securities settlement• Harnessing the potential of ISO 20022 for payments, securities, and matching• What are the next steps?By following these steps, banks and financial institutions can confidently navigate the evolving financial industry. As the industry propels towards real-time payments, enhanced monitoring of securities, prioritising end-to-end visibility ensures a robust foundation for future innovations.Speakers: Sharon Toh, Head of ASEAN Region, SWIFT; Zennon Kapron, Managing Director, Kapronasia; Sumedha Thomare, Head of Client Delivery, Invartis Consulting; Frédéric Viard, Head of Commercial Product Management – Financial Messaging, Bottomline.
