IBM Connected Trade Platform accelerates adoption of innovation and reduces digital supply chain risks for trade and working capital financing

By Yanjka Regan posted 2 days ago

  

IBM is committed to helping financial institutions solve the complexity of trade and working capital finance digitalization by bringing curated ecosystem innovation partners to achieve this objective. IBM enables best-of-breed FinTechs and services on the IBM Cloud for Financial Services – a proven and purpose-built landing zone for independent software vendors (ISVs) or FinTechs to deploy their SaaS applications – with a common set of services delivering the compliance, security, integration, and automation needs of the industry. 

The road to digital trade and working capital finance has not been an easy one — historically, complicated by ever-changing compliance obligations with associated steep penalties and the difficulty in driving change across a global ecosystem of financial institutions, buyers, suppliers, and government agencies. In our view, digitization cannot be accomplished by a single Bank or Vendor, the industry requires a trusted platform operator who can harness the power of a vibrant ecosystem and create an industry specific platform for trade that unlocks value for the entire ecosystem.

Open Account Automation

  •  A comprehensive suite of market leading supply chain finance software solutions with flexible feature integration and trusted products to help banks and corporates to reduce risk, increase liquidity and efficiency

Trade Intelligence & AI Automation for Contract Management

  •             Gen AI powered Document Classification and Extraction to automate document examination checks and bring in efficiency to processing of core trade products
  • Automated Contract Lifecycle Management to create and manage contracts powered by AI

Additional Features

  • Connected Trade Gateway to enable secure enterprise-grade connectivity with Buyer/Supplier systems, across FinTechs/ISVs, and with Bank's internal systems
  • Ability to deploy services across IT environments with a hybrid by default approach to address data privacy and data sovereignty scenarios.

and much more.

Conclusion:
