Finastra announced Finastra StandbyX on October 19, 2026, at the Money 20/20 conference in Las Vegas. The cloud-enabled solution is designed to help U.S. banks digitize and automate standby letter of credit processing.

Streamlining SBLC Processing

Finastra said its new StandbyX solution aims to help regional and mid-sized U.S. banks modernize operations without the cost and complexity of deploying a full trade finance platform. The company stated that the SaaS-deployed tool provides proven standby letter of credit capabilities through its Trade Innovation platform.

The solution is purpose-built for standby letters of credit and offers a streamlined SaaS deployment model designed for rapid implementation, minimizing integration requirements and testing effort.

Executive Perspective

Vinay Mendonca, Head of Trade and Supply Chain Finance and Corporate Channels at Finastra, said the solution gives banks access to proven SaaS technology. According to Mendonca, many U.S. banks have traditionally managed these instruments through manual processes or workarounds.

Mendonca stated that StandbyX helps institutions improve operational efficiency, strengthen controls, and deliver a better customer experience without deploying a full trade finance platform.
