The payment life cycle for international businesses typically involves multiple bank relationships, Treasury, ERP and banking platforms or external suppliers, with different connectivity and security requirements. Spread across geographic locations and business entities, it can be challenging to maintain an accurate, granular view of the payment life cycle. Manual processes and fragmented payment systems across the enterprise leaves organisations open to a greater risk of fraud and error.
