30 October 2012
Accenture and Fundtech have partnered to help banks improve global liquidity management in response to Basel III requirements and changing economic conditions.
Accenture will work with Fundtech to deliver its Global Liquidity & Risk Management solution and jointly develop new diagnostic tools, process models, and operational approaches for banks across Europe, North America and Asia.
Accenture’s and Fundtech’s strong track records in this area represent an unmatched capability that banks can benefit from to address one of the most significant operational challenges they face today
Massimo Proverbio, Accenture “New regulations, market pressures and competitive challenges make liquidity management a crucial area of focus for banks,” said Massimo Proverbio, global managing director, Accenture Payments Services. “Banks need to have an exact view of their cash positions at all times, be able to forecast cash requirements quickly and deal with numerous accounts in multiple countries.
“Accenture’s and Fundtech’s strong track records in this area represent an unmatched capability that banks can benefit from to address one of the most significant operational challenges they face today.”
The two companies will offer services and solutions designed to optimise operational control, visibility, and forecasting in their global intra-day liquidity management.
Reuven Ben Menachem, Fundtech CEO, said: “Fundtech and Accenture offer the market a powerful combination – Accenture’s well-established liquidity management and analytics expertise with Fundtech’s experience in deploying advanced systems that help banks manage their intra-day liquidity needs.”
