Enrique Clemente, sales manager for the Middle East for Petra Financial, explains that the vendor hopes the backing of EastNets will ease its expansion in the region.

The global payments and IBAN validation solution, which automates and validates Swift messages, is available in either an online or software as a solution (SaaS) version.

”The Middle East and North Africa are high growth regions, and customers demand the best technology combined with first class service,” says Clemente.
