by ·Comments Off on Treasury One goes live at KASB Bank

Our second Treasury implementation that integrates completely with the Misys Equation backend, the Alchemy Risk Manager Middle Office application and SBP M3 reporting requirements. Additional options include the ability to link up directly with the Reuters dealing system top feed and SBP FX-CRS reporting engine.

Took a year and an enormous amount of support from the team and the business users at the customer to make this happen… When I am old and grey, I will write another book about the 3 years it took to implement two treasury platforms at two different banks and how different they were from each other.

For now a big hand to the Alchemy team that over the last three years made it possible to develop and deploy our first paper less, transaction and workflow management platform for midsize and large treasuries in Pakistan. And a big thank you for all members of the extended Alchemy family out there who made this milestone especially memorable.

UQA – Universal Query Analyzer tools

The UQA Tools enable user to query the TreasuryOne database and generate reports on their own based on various inputs, such as date, time, counterparty name, dealer id, instrument type, deal type, etc. In this way, several on demand reports can be designed, named and generated by the users themselves. The UQA tools provide an easy quick way to generate custom reports for audits, users and management requests.
