Skandia Bank & Försäkring chooses OpusCapita's IT2 Treasury Management
New activities and regulations have increased pressure on
Skandia Bank & Försäkring's treasury department. Skandia has
now replaced several old systems with a single new one, and at the
same time gained a system that is intuitive and easy to use.
Automation brings better control
"New regulations involving banks and insurance companies place
new pressures on our treasury. In response we have reviewed our
routines and improved our ability to make risk analyses and
reports. We have now found a partner with a modern system that
meets our very high demands," says Ouisem Samoud,
acting head of Skandia's Treasury.
The system offers greater automation and flexible reporting. In
addition to functions such as advanced accounting and liquidity
forecasting, simulations can also be run and there is a full Audit
Trail available. The solution functions as a treasury 'hub' and
includes CLS, value at risk, proactive limit processing, linking
with trading portals and an in-house bank.
"We chose OpusCapita and IT2 once we found how user-friendly the
system is and that it offers a comprehensive solution for our very
complex operations. We now have better control and support for
analyses and all financial and cash management routines," says
Ouisem Samoud.
OpusCapita provides services to companies that need to renew and
automate their financial and liquidity management. Customers in
2010 included Tapiola, Tele2 and Sveafastigheter.
Skandia's choice reinforces the status of the solution offered
by OpusCapita and IT2 as a very sought-after treasury solution. "I
am especially happy to see an old system replaced with modern
solutions that cover not only corporate treasuries but even
financial institutions," says Kari J. Mäkelä,
OpusCapita's CEO.
