At the 2025 Sibos conference in Frankfurt, Germany, global financial services provider Finastra showcased its new Trade Innovation Nexus integration layer.
The platform is intended to simplify banks’ adoption of Finastra’s Trade Innovation software.
It is cloud-ready and can deliver a unified set of REST application programming interfaces (APIs), integration tools, and services to streamline interoperability between bank systems and the broader fintech ecosystem for trade and supply chain workflow automation.
It also enables connectivity between existing systems, Finastra’s own Trade Innovation Nexus system, and third-party platforms like core banking applications.
This is expected to reduce time-to-market for new services and simplify onboarding, static data management, and life-cycle management for banks.
“This offering highlights our commitment to modernising trade finance, supporting digital trade, and enabling secure and scalable integration,” said Rob Downs, VP, Product Management, Lending at Finastra.
It comes as trade finance providers push to balance maintaining legacy infrastructures with the technological demands of modern business.
