Mitigram Partners with Fides to Revolutionize Global Trade Finance
Mitigram, a leading provider in trade finance solutions, has joined forces with Fides, a renowned multibank connectivity provider, to enhance global trade finance. This strategic partnership aims to simplify and centralize bank communication for corporates, paving the way for more efficient international trade operations.
Digitalization of Trade Finance Operations
Through this collaboration, Mitigram and Fides will facilitate the digitalization of trade finance operations for their clients. This means businesses will be able to manage their trade finance activities digitally, rather than relying on traditional paperwork. Digitalization not only streamlines processes but also makes them faster and more secure.
For instance, imagine a company that exports goods to multiple countries. Traditionally, this company would need to communicate separately with each bank involved in different transactions. With the new system, they can centralize these communications, making it easier and quicker to handle transactions, which means they can expand their business with less hassle.
Simplifying Onboarding and Multibank Connectivity
A significant advantage of this partnership is the simplification of the onboarding process for corporate clients. As demand for digital trade finance solutions increases, this streamlined process will enable more businesses to join the digital trade platform swiftly.
Moreover, clients will be able to connect seamlessly with SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication). SWIFT is a global network that facilitates secure and standardized communication between banks. By using SWIFT, companies gain access to multiple banks and can easily set up bank identifier codes, making multibank connectivity more efficient.
Integration with Treasury and ERP Systems
The integration with treasury management systems and enterprise resource planning (ERP) services is another key benefit. These integrations mean that businesses can better manage their financial operations and communications with banks and external partners. For example, if a company uses an ERP system to manage its finances, the integration allows for seamless communication and data exchange between the company's internal systems and its banks.
Impact on Commodity and Manufacturing Sectors
This move towards digitalization is being driven particularly by the commodity and manufacturing sectors. These industries require robust and efficient trade finance solutions due to their high volume of international transactions. With improved connectivity and data access, these sectors can enhance transparency and build trust with financial institutions. This fosters a more collaborative and transparent trade finance ecosystem.
