Industry use cases
Funds and asset services
Funds, management companies and asset services rely on a single orchestration layer to industrialise multi-bank operations across complex structures. The platform centralises account connectivity, payment execution and bank-data flows while enforcing strict segregation between funds, compartments and underlying clients. It supports controlled operating models where a servicer runs day-to-day processing and clients may be granted optional access for initiation, validation, approvals or oversight, depending on governance and delegation arrangements.
Life insurers
For life insurers, the primary value often lies in high-volume account reporting retrieval across a broad network of custodian and account-holding banks, combined with transformation of that information into consistent datasets for oversight and downstream processes. By centralising statement and reporting flows and standardising formats, the solution strengthens monitoring, reconciliation and operational visibility across large multi-bank account estates. Payment capabilities can be activated where required, but the core focus is frequently on data consolidation, transformation and control.
Corporates and institutions
Treasury and finance teams use the platform to centralise operations across multiple banks, streamline payment initiation and approval workflows, and maintain end-to-end visibility over execution. It reduces fragmentation between bank portals and internal systems by providing one consistent workflow layer, with integration options for ERP or TMS environments and support for automation where appropriate. Multi-entity governance is embedded, helping groups enforce consistent approval rules and operational controls across accounts, entities and geographies.
Banks
In a bank context, the solution serves as a customer portal for institutional and/or corporate clients, enabling payment initiation, reporting access and operational oversight on accounts held at the bank – and, optionally, on accounts held at other banks. The setup supports strict segregation per customer and can embed governance steps such as validation workflows performed by one or more bank users before execution, when the operating model requires it, e.g. with depositary banks. This allows banks to deliver a consistent digital experience while extending services beyond channel-specific constraints.

Key benefits
Manage all your bank accounts in one place
A holistic overview and a generic access to all your payment accounts with all your banks on a single secure platform. Implementing Banking Orchestrator removes the need for manual connection or customised integration of proprietary interfaces. It also reduces error levels, increases efficiency and improves regulatory compliance.
Increased data entry accuracy
Banking Orchestrator makes it easier to set up payments through its user-friendly interfaces, reduces the risk of human error and increases safety through its built-in validation mechanisms. It also streamlines processes and harmonises workflows.
End-to-end automation
Banking Orchestrator caters for end-to-end automation scenarios by connecting client systems through its secure API endpoints. This enables clients to submit transactions directly to their banks over the SWIFT network without the need for additional (human) validation at bank level or using the bank’s own security credentials.
Reach
The bank network connectivity is relying on Finologee’s own SWIFT connection stack. Messages are routed through its own BIC but can also use the client’s BIC. National and international coverage is virtually universal, with most banks being connected through the SWIFT network. The connection of bank accounts is a straightforward and standard process at the banks and has no technical impact on the client’s side.
Flexibility
When defining the scope and the setup of an Banking Orchestrator implementation project, Finologee works closely with client teams to define user roles and permissions that accurately reflect internal organisation rights and mandates, and to configure authorisation workflows according to internal procedures. Custom reports can also be implemented to meet specific business requirements.
