Abstract

The objective of this work is to develop an innovative computerized system for operational support in international exchange and trade in financial institutions. The system will support the banking transactions related to the control of day to day operations, providing a managerial vision of all of aspects of the business. The system will be innovative in the manner that: it will use object-oriented technology; it will support the concept of frameworks; it will blend the object-oriented development with the development of systems especially based on regulations; it will be multi-level; it will make use of Internet-derived technologies such as communication backbone; and it will be fully integrated into the external networks such as Sisbacen and Swift. This system will show significant advantages over current systems, be they those available on the market, or internally developed by the banks themselves. The proposed system will comprise the following modules: Basic Registration Modules (client, currency, countries, indexes and others); Commercial Operations Module (exportation, importation, inter-banking and financial); Operations Table Module; Accounting Module; Management Control Module; Reciprocity of Clients; Reciprocity of Bankers; Cash Flow in Foreign Currency; Cash Flow in National Currency; Country Risk; Market Risk (Exchange and Credit); Raising of Foreign Currency; and Operations Yield. Initially, a prototype corresponding to a Control Module of Exchange Contracts will be developed. (AU)
