Bahrain's NBB Group to migrate its SWIFT system to Amazon Web Services
Published 10 Feb,2021 via bizbahrain - The National Bank of Bahrain (NBB) Group announced that it is the first bank in the MENA region to have partnered with Allied Engineering Group (AEG), one of the largest worldwide SWIFT Service Bureaus with banks from over 65 countries worldwide connected to its data centres, to migrate the Bank’s international remittance system (SWIFT) to Amazon Web Service cloud (AWS).
This marks as an important step towards transforming how NBB Group is positioning the cloud at the centre of their digital transformation roadmap.
This is in line with the Government of Bahrain’s cloud adoption strategy. The move will open the door for other financial institutions in Bahrain and the MENA region to follow suit and will help streamline systems, increase service availability, and reduce costs, with the highest levels of security.
