Kuwait-based financial institution Boubyan Bank has successfully deployed the Murex MX.3 platform to enhance its Sharia-compliant treasury operations. The implementation aims to support the bank’s scalability and meet evolving business needs while adhering to international best practices. This initiative underscores Boubyan’s commitment to offering innovative Islamic financial solutions with faster time-to-market and improved risk management capabilities.

Murex has customised its platform to accommodate the specific requirements of Islamic finance. The company serves over 300 global clients, including over 15 banks trading Islamic products across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific regions.

“The growth of Islamic finance in today’s challenging regulatory and legal landscape is pushing institutions offering Sharia-compliant products to innovate, streamline operations, and enhance risk management,” commented Marc Farah, senior business development manager at Murex. “The MX.3 for Islamic Finance solution provides banks with a competitive edge. It not only offers a comprehensive catalog of Sharia-compliant payoffs, but also optimizes operational efficiency through automated post-trade processes and a preconfigured setup. We are confident that financial institutions in Kuwait and the region will see similar success with the implementation of our solution.”

The project was executed in partnership with Sequel, a Murex associate partner, which managed system integration, migration, and post-launch support for the platform.
