Interbank fund transfer automation

Purpose

1. Fully automate interbank fund transfers between central banking systems, reducing manual intervention and processing delays.

2. Facilitate real-time settlement and reconciliation between internal accounts and multiple external banking partners.

3. Integrate automated compliance checks, fraud detection, and reporting within fund transfer workflows.

4. Enable continuous audit trails and automated notification alerts for all fund movement events across the banking ecosystem.

5. Automate the extraction, transformation, and loading of transactional data to central repositories and regulatory reporting interfaces.

Trigger Conditions

1. Initiation of an interbank payment order from core banking back-end systems.

2. Receipt of SWIFT/ISO20022 payment messages indicating funds transfer action required.
