Case Study: Commercial International Bank Egypt slashes transaction times and boosts automation with Finastra

CIB Egypt Brings Next-Generation Digital Services to Corporate Clients

Commercial International Bank Egypt, the country’s leading private bank, set out to accelerate a multi-year digital transformation to make corporate banking more efficient, compliant and customer‑focused. To enhance trade finance and cash management and win new corporate clients, Commercial International Bank Egypt partnered with Finastra and upgraded to Finastra’s FusionBanking Corporate Channels and FusionBanking Trade Innovation solutions.

Finastra worked with the bank to implement a unified online portal, new supply‑chain finance and money‑market capabilities, stronger authentication and enhanced reporting. The upgrade cut average transaction processing time from 2 days to 2 hours, increased automation (cash transactions +40%, trade transactions +20%), reduced per‑transaction costs by about 40% and moved roughly half of corporate transactions online—helping Commercial International Bank Egypt grow customers, revenues and market share.
