With this agreement, Standard Chartered and Bolero will provide multi-bank services to its customers globally. The Bolero multi-bank service automates the end-to-end lifecycle of the Letter of Credit and Guarantee instruments for both Importers and Exporters removing substantially the costs complexity, discrepancies and time delays associated with the traditional paper based or partially electronic processes.
Tan Kah Chye, Global Head of Trade Finance, Transaction Banking at Standard Chartered says: “At Standard Chartered we have invested substantially in developing leading edge services for our global customers. This agreement with Bolero recognises the fundamental shift to corporate-centric multi-bank automation and the desire by Standard Chartered to continue to add value to its corporate customers. For some time we have been at the forefront of the use of technology in pursuit of corporate services and we believe this is a step forward in the right direction to leverage the value of the Bolero multi-bank initiative.”
“The market for multi-bank solutions is growing rapidly. Until recently this has been stimulated by typically large global corporations in pursuit of reduced costs, optimized working capital and the removal of time delays and bottlenecks in the global supply chain. The decision by Standard Chartered to fully endorse the Bolero multi-bank platform shows their leadership in driving value to their corporate customers and signals the beginning of significant change in the future relationship between a corporate and its partner banks” said Arthur Vonchek, CEO of Bolero. “We are thrilled that Standard Chartered, one of the leading and most respected global trade banks, has shown the initiative to drive this agreement with Bolero.”
