Financial technology leader FIS® (NYSE: FIS) announced today that it has signed a long-term agreement with CACEIS, jointly owned by Credit Agricole S.A. and Santander, to provide the asset servicing firm with an enhanced payment hub to industrialize payment operations, reduce processing costs and provide a smooth payment experience.
With custodial assets of € 3.9 trillion, CACEIS is a leading provider of execution, clearing, securities lending, custody and fund services to asset managers and institutional and corporate clients worldwide. The firm was looking for a best-in-class platform to standardize its cross-border payments, while complying with ISO 20022 and other emerging payments standards.
