SWIFT Standards

Trace Financial has worked with SWIFT and SWIFT Standards for many years, developing an unrivalled depth of expertise - and it is all packed into Transformer.
ISO 20022

ISO 20022 is spreading fast, but its high complexity sets a new level of challenge. Here is the best way of delivering projects that use it.
JSON and APIs

Transformer now offers a rich array of functionality to tackle API-based messaging projects, with their reliance on JSON formatting and Schemas, and Swagger API specs.
ISO 8583 / Faster Payments

ISO 8583 is based on a bitmap element which dictates the structure of the message and exists in several versions including the Faster Payments Scheme. Let us show you how Transformer handles these formats and validations with ease.
FpML

OTC Derivatives are highly complex, and so is FpML. This advanced message standard has many special features - and Transformer has them all covered.
Euroclear UK & Ireland's CREST

Trace Financial helps a diverse range of financial businesses and vendor partners to integrate easily and efficiently with Euroclear UK Ireland's CREST service.
Trax

TRAX, the bond matching system operated by Xtrakter, uses its own flavour of the ISO15022 and 20022 (MT and MX) standards.
Trace Financial and Transformer played a crucial role in the QA testing of TRAX messages when they were first introduced.
Bespoke and Proprietary formats

Not all formats are globally defined, these bespoke and proprietary formats require parsing and mapping to/from other standards. Transformer is built to support any format with ease. Let us show you how.
