Customer History

Established in the heart of West Africa, EBID BIDC (Economic Community of West African States Bank for Investment and Development) stands as a pivotal financial institution dedicated to fostering economic growth and development within the region. With a rich history spanning several decades, EBID BIDC has played a crucial role in supporting infrastructure projects, promoting trade, and driving sustainable development initiatives across its member states. EBID BIDC holds a significant presence in the banking and finance sector. It offers a range of services tailored to meet businesses and individuals’ diverse needs.

With the ever-evolving financial messaging landscape, EBID BIDC struggled to manage their Swift connectivity and stay compliant. On top of that, they wanted to take advantage of the latest Swift innovations, but it all felt overwhelming.

The company then decided to work with a Swift partner, one who could help them take advantage of Swift’s latest innovations and navigate the financial messaging world. EBID BIDC chose to adopt DiXiO’s Smart Messaging Platform.

“We were having trouble keeping up with the changes happening in the Swift system. Innovations like Swift Go, ISO 20022, and other updates were coming out, and we couldn’t always understand what they meant or how to use them.”

Additionally, the integration capabilities with back-office applications were significantly improved, enabling seamless communication and data exchange between systems.
