Case Study: Natixis achieves 50% faster SWIFT messaging and 4x lower maintenance with Informatica

Natixis builds SWIFT Messaging and Data Infrastructure on integrated solution of PowerCenter and B2B Data Transformation

Natixis, a Paris‑based financial institution with more than 23,000 employees across 68 countries and core businesses in corporate and institutional banking, private equity and wealth management, banking technology services, and receivables management, needed to accelerate and better control data‑driven processes. The bank faced the challenge of delivering SWIFT messages by transforming data from heterogeneous legacy systems, eliminating transatlantic communication issues, replacing hard‑to‑maintain applications, and increasing visibility into its data.

By extending its Informatica PowerCenter implementation with Informatica B2B Data Transformation, Natixis automated end‑to‑end data transformations—handling both structured data and complex SWIFT messages within a single environment. The solution cut SWIFT messaging development and implementation time and cost by 50%, reduced maintenance and troubleshooting effort four‑fold, improved data visibility and integrity, and created a foundation for enterprise‑wide data integration.
