Misys celebrates 10 years in Moscow

Misys plc - one of the world's largest suppliers of banking software solutions - is celebrating a decade of supplying financial institutions throughout Russia and the Baltic states.

Misys first began selling its solutions to the region after opening its first office in the former Soviet Union in 1992. Since its acquisition of BIS in 1993, later through ACT International, Midas-Kapiti International and now Misys International Banking Systems, Misys has consistently offered modern technology to Russia's banks and other financial institutions.
Customers in the region include: Alfa-Bank, International Moscow Bank, Raiffeisen Bank, National Bank of Belarus, Belvnesheconombank (Belarus), Kazkommertsbank (Kazakhstan), Privat Bank (Ukraine), International Bank of Azerbaijan.
Kevin Lomax, Chairman, Misys, said: "We are delighted to have been selected by so many Russian and Baltic state customers as a core software supplier over the last ten years. We have a strong commitment to the local market where software often needs to be highly customised to take account of regional banking regulations. We look forward to working with many more institutions in the area in the years ahead."
Rupert Soames, Chief Executive Officer, Misys Banking and Securities Division, added: "The Russian economy has changed remarkably in the last ten years so our products have had to be flexible enough to adapt to the changing market conditions. We are celebrating with our many happy customers and we look forward to supplying many more over the next decade."
Renat Konurbaev, CIS & Baltics Regional Director, Misys International Banking Systems, commented: "Misys have a strong presence in Russia and the Baltics built on the back of quality systems and effective implementation. Through our offices in Moscow and Riga, we can maintain a regular dialogue with customers to ensure they are getting the best service and support at all times."
Misys is celebrating its tenth anniversary with a series of events for customers and local dignitaries.
