Manager – Quantum Cloud Edition to support its treasury and risk operations.

The newly licensed German bank is using the cloud-based platform to provide integrated front-to-back treasury capabilities from launch, avoiding the need to deploy or modernise legacy on-premises infrastructure.

As financial institutions face rising IT costs, increasing regulatory requirements and growing competition, a growing number of next-generation banks are moving away from legacy on-premises treasury infrastructure. FIB has chosen to establish treasury capabilities from inception using front-to-back automation, governance and cloud-based scalability. The bank is already live with the solution, with ALM Partners supporting the implementation project.

Andrés Choussy, President, Capital Markets, FIS, said:“ The pace of change in treasury and risk management is accelerating, with regulatory complexity, real-time settlement expectations and the operational demands of running a modern bank all combining to create problems for banks on legacy software. By partnering with FIS, FIB has made a deliberate choice to start with infrastructure that is built for where banking is going, not where it has been. FIS Treasury & Risk Manager – Quantum Cloud Edition delivers exactly that: the controls, automation and scalability FIB needs from day one.”

Florian Pointner, Head of Treasury at FIB, said:“ When establishing our treasury operations, we were deliberate about the infrastructure choices we made from the outset. For a bank built around export finance and complex cross-border transactions, operational resilience and governance are not optional, they are fundamental. FIS Treasury & Risk Manager – Quantum Cloud Edition gave us the front-to-back coverage and capabilities we required, within a managed cloud model that allows us to deploy our resources where they create the most value for our clients.”

Peter Woeste Christensen, Director at Magpie, FIB’ s external consultant, who led the design of the treasury target operating model and the selection of FIS Quantum as the enabling platform, said:“ After just 10
