Oracle Access Management vs. Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS)

OAM is designed to be scalable, and it can handle large-scale deployments with thousands of users and applications. It provides a centralized framework for managing access to web applications and resources, enabling organizations to define and enforce security policies across their entire IT environment. OAM offers a range of authentication and authorization mechanisms, including multi-factor authentication and OAuth-based authentication, making it suitable for organizations that need to meet different security and compliance requirements.

TIS [Treasury Intelligence Solutions] is well suited for a company with multiple banking relationships in multiple countries. This can allow a treasury function to have better visibility and control over its daily cash management operations. It has very good report writing capabilities and dashboard functionality to customize a report for the end user.

• Oracle Access Management allows superior session management capabilities. It can maintain and terminate session states using access engine and endpoint cookies or security tokens.
• It allows for automated single sign-on as well as protocol translation.
• The suite allows for real-time fraud detection and prevention capabilities. This is especially useful where our applications are accessed by tens of thousands of users simultaneously.

• BTM MONITOR & Payment Monitor: we have a good view of the companies' bank statements & payments current status. Error tracking and issue logs can be found easily. In case of an error the error message describes it well so that we can act alone and solve the issues in most cases without further help. Speed is particularly important at month-end closes, you cannot be without a solution.
• Payment files PAIN mapping. The Know-How of TIS and its expertise to PAIN file integration and possible options. We have not seen a case where our TIS Project Manager did not know the answer to an issue. Often it comes instantly. Sometimes they would of course investigate, but the root cause review of a technical issue is key to success here. These guys really know what they are doing.
• Support Team of TIS. They have a very fast response time. I would point it out as being the key strength of the TIS package. You will never have critical items not addressed in due time. The speed and quality of their responses to issues is how it should be. From a financial operational point of view: It's important to ensure business continuity, which they do.

• The product could be improved by simplifying changing the master password. That is, if you change a password in one place, it would be good to automate changing the password for all the gateways so that change is less complicated.
• It should be more Customizable for Customer Specific needs.
• Oracle Access Management connects well with Oracle Database but doesn't work smoothly with Microsoft AD.

• Improved VaR risk module to apply to cash balances exposure
• Currency risk controls - volatility forecast
• Trading platforms connectivity - hedging capabilities for SWAPtions
• Probable ripple integration to make settlemets faster versus t+2
• Compliance: not only track sanctions, payment details but get Credit Score of counterparty
• Chinease counterparties details (state banks do not share) - fraud risk depreciation
• Loans offering page
• Direct banks chats - push to send message to operator

Depends on stage of the project if it will be postponed in 2023. Se la vie. Will be happy to go on.

The main feature of usability is the outcome you get upon actions done. TIS is not complecated solution - it is rational and has most needed capabilites for cash management via multiple accounts in different jurisdictions. It works well for this task and evolutioning to the field of risk management to get all treasury job done well.

Offered support information in the portal (knowledge base articles) as well members of the support provides a very good service level.

The cloud connection meant less work for IT. The setup of the first 1000 accounts was very quick, so we went live after only 4 months.

Both are great products. From a technical point of view Oracle Access Management implementation is relatively simple due to the possibility to adjust the functionality and appearance of the system to the customer's needs. SAP is a robust product but not user friendly and more expensive. Overall cost and product functionality was what drove us to implement Oracle Access Management.

We have used bank applications and another large TMS provider based in the US. Our prior TMS was a full-scale system which was very robust and extremely complex. We were not using 3/4 of the functionality and we decided it made more sense to select a simpler system that met our core requirements which are connectivity and transaction & information support. TIS does this very well at a lower price point. In the end, TIS better suited our needs and was much simpler and more affordable.

• It help us to reduce password fatigue & exposure related to numerous applications within the organization thus enhancing the users performance
• The single point of failure always keeps us in tension which make us little nervous about this Oracle SSO.
• The cost of this product licenses adds to one of the dislikes.

In terms of risk mitigation of course we can reduce the number of people having access to banking if not needed. With dedicated teams and less people with access to individual Bank portals. Before access to bank portals were necessary for all sorts of manual payments and exceptions if we really implement the 100% of functions and dont leave exceptions that risk mitigation can be achieved and efficiency at automated payment runs.

• At a large corporation with more than 60 entities and 400+ bank accounts, the savings and improvements are massive considering how time-consuming the manual work would be. I don't have any numbers to quote, unfortunately.
• We are now massively expanding our TIS with the full integration of automated payment runs. This has larger operational impacts, like the possible consolidation of banking and dedicated payment teams.
