Revamping the principles of corporate banking with Host-to-Host Connectivity (H2H)

In today’s corporate banking landscape, the most impactful solutions are those that integrate seamlessly into the background—frictionless, automated, and highly efficient. MCB’s latest enhancements to its Host-to-Host (H2H) connectivity are designed to do exactly that: streamline operations, eliminate manual intervention, and deliver seamless performance that redefines how businesses interact with their financial systems.

Built for Complexity. Engineered for Clarity.

Tailored for companies handling high volume of payments and treasury operations, the enhanced H2H connectivity goes far beyond being a data conduit. It is an automated infrastructure layer that connects internal systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, treasury platforms, and accounting software with MCB’s secure banking system. The Host-to-Host Connectivity is not limited to a specific ERP system.

Instead of relying on manual uploads or navigating through cumbersome portals, payment instructions and statements are now exchanged effortlessly and securely in the background. With encrypted data transfers coupled with exchange of key pairs and Secured File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), companies now enjoy peace of mind without compromising on speed and security.

A Platform That Moves As You Do

The platform comes with built-in support for key formats like MT101, MT940 and Bulk Payments, and integrates seamlessly with ERP systems and treasury platforms. Once payment files are transferred via Host to Host Connectivity, they are immediately queued for processing, eliminating delays and reducing the need for human intervention.

Cash flow management strategies are specific for every company.  Whether you are processing high volume transactions, managing complex supply chain payments, or reconciling high-frequency inflows and outflows across jurisdictions, this platform adapts to scale and scope.

What’s Next: Visibility, Integration, Intelligence

According to Joanne Louise, Executive Vice President, Cash and Business Services, Global Transaction Banking, “Soon, clients will gain access to hourly intraday transaction reports in MT942 format, enhancing real-time monitoring. We’re in the process to support XML formats, which are being adopted by our clients as they transition beyond traditional SWIFT messaging.” 

More Than a Platform—A Partnership

It is a precision-led transformation—with MCB as a transactional partner, not just a service provider, a dedicated team remains available to guide and support along this digital journey.

In a world where every second, every detail, and every decision matters, having the right infrastructure behind you makes all the difference. With Host-to-Host evolving in step with client needs, the future of corporate banking is becoming faster, smarter, and more fluid.
