CASCADE via file-transfer allows customers to communicate with CASCADE host-to-host. Instructions can be sent to CASCADE in blocks, direct from customers in-house system via a leased line.

Customers can obtain many data files which allow settlement and payment data to be booked electronically and thus efficiently automate back-office processes.

Designed for straight-through processing of instructions and reports it provides high-speed, fully automated file transfer in standardised SWIFT ISO 7775 and 15022 formats.

Customer benefits

  • Very cost efficient by highly transaction volume
  • Standardised SWIFT ISO formats

CASCADE Link Manager (LIMA)

Through CASCADE's link manager (LIMA) CBF and its customers can exchange files of the ISO 15022 standards. A file comprises one or several message blocks that are each limited by a header record and a trailer record.

IBM WebSphere MQ

In addition to file transfer and SWIFT, CBF offers a third interface on the basis of WebSphere MQ in accordance with ISO 15022, having the same functionality as the SWIFT services. The messages exchanged through IBM WebSphere MQ have the same format as the messages exchanged through SWIFT and file transfer.
