SwiftReady Accreditation is awarded exclusively to SWIFT partners that deliver a quality level of services and products to their customers, while acting in accordance with the highest professional standards. Patrik Neutjens, Head of SWIFT Partner Management, commented, "We are very pleased that IT2 today starts the process to be part of our SWIFTReady Partner Programme."

Kevin Grant, IT2 Treasury Solutions' CEO, adds: "Many of IT2's corporate and financial institution clients presently use IT2 to interconnect with SWIFT, for the upload of bank statements, for exporting payments, and for integration with the Accord confirmation matching service. We are experiencing an increasing demand for IT2-SWIFT integration as treasurers seek best practice enterprise-wide visibility of cash, combined with efficient and well-integrated STP operations.

"In today's demanding financial environment, this initiative endorses the treasury management and technology benefits that SWIFT integration brings to an expanding group of IT2 clients."
