Banking Transformation project scope and targets

The main scope was to upgrade the old version of Murex (2.11) to the up-to-date version (3.1.42) based on the as-is functionalities.


The main target was to get rid of the previous software version which contained serious database, application server and operating system vulnerabilities within the shortest possible time.


However meanwhile it turned out that due to the huge differences between the old and new Murex versions, the banking transformation project is rather to be considered as a new system implementation.


The new version of Murex offers more automated and updated solutions bringing added value to the bank.
