EP997: Why banks cannot afford to rely on ISO 20022 translation tools
About this episode
Nick Fernando, Co-founder & Director, Aqua Global Solutions

Yet stopgap measures come at a cost. Nick Fernando, Co-founder and Director at Aqua Global Solutions, warns that translation tools won’t cut it in the long run. Banks that are ISO 20022 native stand to gain far more than compliance – from faster straight-through processing to fewer manual errors and richer data insights.
