The financial sector accelerates its digital transformation with strategic alliances that seek to strengthen customer efficiency and experience. In this context, BBVA and SAP Spain have sealed an agreement that will allow the Bank to integrate the SAP Multibank Connectivity solution into its BBVA Pivot platform, with the aim of offering companies centralized and automated management of their financial transactions.
The collaboration is part of the new strategic cycle 2025-2029 of the Financial Group, in which the business business is positioned as one of the main growth levers. BBVA’s commitment responds to a clear trend: companies demand solutions that unify the treasury operation and reduce technological integration times.
An integration that redefines corporate banking
With the incorporation of SAP Multibank Connectivity, BBVA will facilitate corporations, SMEs and institutions to directly connect their business management systems with bank services. This integration includes from payment management to financing, which is a faster, safe and lower error risk.
“We want to simplify the access of companies to our services, integrating ourselves in their processes in a more fluid and intuitive way. With this step we reinforce our commitment to be the bank of all companies, accompanying them with financing and also with tools that drive their growth and efficiency,” explains David Arias, responsible for the proposal of Banca de Business and Institutions of BBVA.
For his part, José Vallés, general director of SAP Spain, highlights the added value of the Alliance: “The incorporation of BBVA to SAP Multibank Connectivity will allow customers to automatically execute their treasury operations and payments from their own systems, combining the financial capacities of BBVA with the innovations in SAP business management”.
Key benefits for companies
Integration will provide multiple advantages:
- Automation of payments and bank reconciliations, reducing errors and fraud.
- Operational efficiency thanks to the exchange of safe and simplified financial information.
- Connectivity under international standards such as EBics and Swift, which guarantee global interoperability.
- Reinforced compliance with international banking regulations, minimizing regulatory risks.
- Real -time visibility on treasury and payments, favoring data -based financial decisions.
For SAP and BBVA, the key is to respond to a growing need for the market: companies seek solutions that not only integrate processes, but also provide them with greater intelligence and predictive capacity thanks to the application of technologies such as AI.
