Fundtech executive vice president Joseph Mazzetti said it is evident that new regulations and current economic conditions have made liquidity and risk management a top priority for banks globally.

"In this environment, banks need the ability to understand their current positions with precision in real-time, and be able to act immediately," Mazzetti said.

"We designed the new Global Liquidity & Risk Management solution with the power to aggregate and analyze the bank’s enterprise-wide liquidity, and have given it the flexibility to react through both rules-driven automation and manual controls."

The offering is suitable to provide liquidity and collateral positions and acts faster to changing market conditions, enabling banks to view liquidity with real-time, intraday management capabilities, said the solution provider.

Built on Fundtech’s Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) technology, the new stand-alone solution can be customized and integrated with any payments infrastructure on a global, regional or local basis, claims Fundtech.

The solution also consolidates liquidity- and collateral-related transactions from across the bank’s global enterprise, providing a new level of real-time visibility and control.

The offering’s rules-based design provides unmatched flexibility to customise it to existing workflows, policies and preferences such as identify priority payments, set parameters, reserve funding and set release bands.
