Case Study: China CITIC Bank International achieves streamlined, compliant and scalable treasury operations with Murex MX.3

China CITIC Bank International leverages new integrated treasury platform to drive expansion and compliance

China CITIC Bank International (CNCBI) faced a fragmented treasury and markets landscape—five legacy systems that constrained pricing and structuring, slowed product time-to-market, and hindered robust, real-time risk and regulatory compliance (Basel III, FRTB). To drive cross-border expansion, broader RMB product coverage and stronger risk controls, CNCBI selected Murex and its MX.3 platform.

Murex implemented MX.3 as a single front-to-back-to-risk platform, consolidating five systems into one solution that enabled straight-through processing, a unified valuation and risk engine (including PFE, CVA and SA-CCR), and an automated product distribution platform. The deployment improved processing capacity and service stability, cut maintenance and interface costs, sped regulatory rollouts and product launches, supported global expansion, and helped CNCBI lift net profit before tax by over 17% in 2016.
