Features

Multiple Settlement Cycles

PS-IIPS allows multiple settlement cycles during the day to cover the entire 24 hours. The settlement cycles can be arranged according to a configurable time duration, or an amount threshold equivalent to the liquidity reserves of financial institutions i.e. debit caps.

Multiple Settlement Cycles
Deferred Net Settlement

Deferred Net Settlement

PS-IIPS utilizes the Deferred Net Settlement (DNS) approach for inter-institutional settlement. Once each settlement cycle is completed, the system generates the net positions of the participant financial institutions and communicates them to the central bank for final settlement in the RTGS system.

Versatile Transactions

PS-IIPS processes a wide variety of financial transactions including credit transfers, request-to-pay, return and request-to-return among others to provide financial institutions with the ability to offer versatile instant payments transactions to their end users.

Intelligent Settlement

PS-IIPS distinguishes settlement between consumers, which is immediate and at any point in time including nighttime, weekends and holidays, and settlement between financial institutions, which takes place typically in an RTGS system when the central bank is open.

Inter-Institutional Settlement
