With more than 95% of the bank’s transaction messaging occurring over the SWIFT network, KAS Bank’s decision to implement technologies from Microsoft will allow it to provide customers with payments processing, featuring faster connections and reduced costs.
The implementation of BizTalk Server and BizTalk Accelerator for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) comes as KAS Bank transitions its entire operations platform off the mainframe and on to the Microsoft Windows platform, eliminating the need for multiple connectivity applications. This move has allowed KAS Bank to reduce operational costs and increase service and straight-through processing (STP) levels for its customers, a key organizational goal.
