You'll gain access to ABN AMRO's network and payment solutions, and you can also manage other banks through this system. Your files are processed automatically, reducing operational costs and optimising investments, such as in ERP systems.

SWIFT FIN

FIN is SWIFT's primary 'store-and-forward' messaging service. It validates messages according to SWIFT standards. Your messages are monitored, prioritised, and stored, allowing for easy retrieval. The system features a distributed architecture with built-in redundancy, ensuring maximum availability.

SWIFT FileAct

FileAct supports custom solutions for market infrastructure communities, closed user groups, and financial institutions. It is particularly suitable for bulk payments and End-Of-Day/Intraday reporting, as well as other purposes like central bank reporting and intra-institutional reporting.
