SWIFT GPI connection

BCS Bank on July 17, 2020 provided business with the opportunity to instantly learn about the state of international transfers. The bank has connected a system for tracking currency payments in real time - SWIFT GPI. The solution helps companies focused on foreign economic activity to quickly close transactions and maintain trusting relations with partners with closed borders.

The company does not need to spend time tracking, the Bank monitors all tracking of BCS independently, if necessary, a personal manager contacts the client. At any time, the client can receive detailed information about the payment and related commissions at each stage - from the moment the Bank processes the BCS until it is credited to the recipient's account. The service also helps companies reduce operating costs, as it makes it possible to see which correspondent bank and for which it writes off additional fees. The service is free and available to all corporate clients of the bank.

Although more than seven hundred banks abroad use SWIFT GPI technologies as of July 2020, only a few players are ready to offer such services in Russia so far. At the same time, the business is especially in dire need of services for remote interaction with banks and counterparties, so we hope that this decision will become the standard for the Russian market, - commented Dmitry Peshnev-Podolsky, Chairman of the Board of BCS Bank.

Against the background of global uncertainty and tension, requirements for both digital solutions and the level of service in banks have increased. It is important not only to ensure speed and continuity of work, but also to demonstrate absolute transparency of all processes in order to help the client maintain stable relations with partners and develop business even in such difficult conditions, - said Vyacheslav Andryushkin, Executive Director for Corporate Business of BCS Bank.
