Bancolombia, Colombia’s biggest bank, has gone live with the Murex MX.3 platform for Hedge Accounting, further extending the bank’s use of the solution on AWS. The adoption supports compliance with IFRS 9, which requires banks to measure expected credit losses and manage interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB).
The MX.3 Hedge Accounting module automates hedge designation, effectiveness testing, reporting and accounting reclassification. It supports a range of hedge types, including fair value, cash flow and net investment hedges for foreign exchange transactions. This enables Bancolombia to enhance efficiency and ensure transparency in its accounting processes.
The project also ensures compliance with local regulation, including External Circular 025, while aligning with international standards. By broadening its use of MX.3 across fixed income, foreign exchange and derivatives, Bancolombia strengthens its front-to-back operations and risk management framework.
