Vincent Santeng, expressed that when we cease to innovate, we acknowledge that the past governs our present and future.
The implementation of AFSS modules varies depending on the specific financial market and product being addressed. AFSS utilizes a component-based approach, enabling a smooth integration with third-party solutions in order to achieve end-to-end (E2E) automated straight-through processing (STP) for efficient dataflow and management.
Fintech and Telecoms Combined
AFSS combines technology, software development, and communication channels to provide value to its clients. AFSS software solutions serve as both frontend and backend components. The AFSS middleware and APIs are connected to a Telco entity, enabling seamless end-to-end dataflow and management.
Pensions and Retirement Planning
Pensions are distinct financial products that vary based on the specific characteristics and regulatory requirements of local markets. AFSS offers a dedicated Pension module that can be combined with various other AFSS modules, such as Investments, Charges and Commission, Risk Management, and ALM scenarios.

Securities and Debt Instruments

Commodity and Hedging
The AFSS Commodity and Hedging module offers pre-defined templates to capture product type, marketing conditions, valuation, and end-of-day market prices. Users can utilise these templates to forward price their considerations for risk controls. The AFSS Hedging sub-module enables users to set forward and trigger prices and provides warnings of potential losses based on user-defined curve values.
Micro Finance & Money Remittance
In the unregulated market, loans and deposits are managed differently compared to traditional banking systems. AFSS addresses this through its Micro Finance and Money Remittance module, which enables users to track transactions from initiation to final payment to the beneficiary. AFSS provides client control over user access and grants varying levels of functionality based on user roles.
Custody and Corporate Actions
Traded and settled instruments are typically held by certified depository houses. These instruments can be traded while maintaining their transformed state, but entitlement to applicable coupons remains non-negotiable from the instrument issuer. AFSS Custody and Corporate Actions module tracks entitlement as an 'Open Item' and determines predefined charges. The module also automatically activates respective nominated nostros and vostro accounts.
Crypto & Digital Currencies
Central banks often argue that cryptocurrency is not a financial product, despite its technology-driven nature. Its value is primarily determined by demand and it is increasingly traded on online stock markets. In contrast, digital currency is backed by a central bank and recognised as legal tender. AFSS Crypto and Digital solutions provide a backend interface to assist clients in managing their investments.
