Corporate Banking
SWIFT for Corporates
Achieve greater visibility and control with this fully integrated proposition, which enables you to communicate directly with banks via the SWIFT network, utilising common industry formats.
From mid-sized companies with simple cash management requirements to organisations deploying International Treasury Centres and shared service centres, you could benefit from a SWIFT solution
SWIFT provides you with a reliable, fast and secure gateway to Barclays and your other banks for a variety of Treasury and Cash Management purposes
Barclays is accredited ‘Bank Ready’ by SWIFT and was the first UK bank to offer corporate and non-bank financial institution customers (NBFI) the benefits of direct access to SWIFT
Is it right for you?
- If you’re developing a treasury/shared service centre and/or payment factory, you’ll be looking for increased standardisation, centralisation, rationalisation of systems, integration and automation of processes – all of which are potentially achievable via SWIFT, as a gateway to all of your banking partners
- The ability to consolidate a number of banking platforms into a single gateway is particularly useful for multi-banked organisations
- Through SWIFT you will be able to communicate with each of your banks1 via a single connection in common, standardised formats – rather than using different login protocols specific to each bank’s system
How it supports your business
- Provides global visibility of accounts across all business operations, as you will receive previous day and intra-day transaction reporting from both Barcays and your other banks around the world, in common standardised formats via a single connection
- Gives you standardised message formats that increase the potential for Straight Through Processing (STP) and reconciliation with your TMS, ERP and back office applications
- Offers you the opportunity to leverage additional benefits from your investment in Treasury Management or ERP systems, enabling you to maximise your return on that investment
- Provides you with a scalable interface that includes delivery of SEPA payments and local Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments, as well as cross-border payments
- Gives you the opportunity to review and improve internal controls and reduce the number of electronic banking platforms required
- Available globally
