Empowering Compliance: How BADR Bank Gained Visibility and Control with Eastnets Messaging Warehouse

Situation

Transparency, Efficiency, and Real-Time Insights

BADR Bank, one of Algeria’s leading financial institutions, continues to expand its role in supporting individuals, agribusinesses, and enterprises across the country. As transaction volumes increased and regulatory scrutiny intensified, the bank required stronger capabilities to monitor, analyze, and report on Swift traffic with speed and accuracy.

To meet these needs, BADR Bank partnered with Eastnets to deploy Eastnets Messaging Warehouse (EMW) — a centralized platform designed to deliver real-time visibility, advanced analytics, and automated reporting across all financial messaging activity.

 

Task

Improving Oversight and Decision-Making

As payment activity grew in both scale and complexity, BADR Bank’s compliance and operations teams encountered several limitations:

  • Limited end-to-end visibility into Swift message traffic

  • Time-consuming, manual processes for management and compliance reporting

  • Difficulty producing technical and business reports on demand

  • Increasing demand for real-time alerts and proactive monitoring

The objective was clear: implement a centralized monitoring and reporting platform that reduces manual effort, improves governance, and provides management with timely, reliable insights.
