In the fast-paced financial services community, one single message can trigger a huge transaction. It can also cause substantial losses if it fails to reach its destination or leaves room for interpretation. Incentage transforms every message into the individually required format. The IMS Incentage Middleware Suite controls and channels messages, making sure they arrive at the right destination on time - with maximum STP rates guaranteed. |

The Issue
Today, dozens of internal applications and hundreds of external systems and entities have to exchange messages in a reliable, scalable and time-critical environment.
- Applications, systems and entities are using a wide variety of standards, formats, protocols and versions. Incompatibility is the standard of the day.
- Messaging is undergoing rapid changes, even where standards exist, e .g. SWIFT, FIN, XML, ISO20022 etc. New message types, new applications or business entities must be integrated in no time.
- Regulators and market infrastructures require far-reaching changes which have to be adapted quickly and within hard deadlines.
- Messaging solutions have grown historically over time into complex and rigid legacy infrastructures which are lacking any flexibility and manoeuvrability.
