Over 15 million treasury transactions in 2005 for the transaction services portal

20th February 2006 - New York and London - Misys Banking Systems has seen strong growth in the demand for its integrated treasury portal, Misys Treasury Plus. With more than 15 million automated transactions handled in 2005, this represents one in every eight transactions in the FX global market and confirms Misys Treasury Plus as a leader in the post-trade services market.

The FX & MM industry has grown rapidly in recent years, and the success of Misys Treasury Plus has been fueled by demand from corporate treasurers for services to help manage all their treasury needs within a single solution to cut costs and simplify management. 

Launched in 2005, Misys Treasury Plus is the latest iteration of Misys Treasury and integrates both transaction and application services within a single, secure portal for its customers across all industry segments.  Mark Davies, General Manager of Misys Global Managed Services, the treasury services arm of Misys Banking Systems, explains, “Over the last twelve months we've taken advantage of the growth in customer demand and we have seen an increase in our client base to over 4,000 users across the globe.

“Our success comes from being able to equip our customers with critical services across all parts of the treasury function.  Whether it is FX, MM, precious metals or other markets, we continue to provide treasurers with both transaction and application services, including solutions to help them meet legal and regulatory requirements, all through a single portal - Misys Treasury Plus.  We look forward to continuing our growth in 2006 and beyond.”
