Liuzhou Bank has officially launched its next-generation core banking system, marking a seamless transition to a modern, high-performance infrastructure. 

Developed in collaboration with Sunline, the successful rollout represents a significant milestone in the bank’s mission to achieve full technological autonomy, accelerate digital transformation, and sharpen its competitive edge.

Building a Modern Digital Foundation

The project originated in August 2023 as part of the bank’s ambitious project. Liuzhou Bank has officially partnered with Sunline to spearhead on the core system by November 2023.

Moving away from legacy constraints, the new system leverages a cloud-native, microservices-based, and distributed database architecture. This sophisticated framework decouples business models to streamline core financial functions, allowing the bank to assemble transactions rapidly through microservice centers. This agility ensures the bank can respond to market fluctuations and significantly shorten product development cycles.

15 Months of Innovation

Following 15 months of intensive development, the joint team has delivered a high-availability, high-reliability system that serves as a benchmark for regional bank transformation. The new core is defined by four strategic pillars: Enhanced Service Efficiency, Unified Product Management, Full-Stack Autonomy, and Agile Architecture. “The successful launch of our next-generation core system is a pivotal milestone in the history of Liuzhou Bank,” said Xie Bin, Chairman of Liuzhou Bank, during the project’s celebratory ceremony. 

Key Technical & Operational Breakthroughs

– Elevated Service Efficiency: The system has optimized end-to-end business processes. Daily batch processing speeds are now 1.7 times faster than the previous system, translating to a quicker and more seamless experience for customers.

– Unified Product Management: By standardizing foundational products and normalizing management workflows, the bank’s staff can now innovate financial products rapidly to meet personalized customer demands with precision.

– Full-Stack Autonomy: The system achieves complete localized adaptation—from the underlying database to application components. This establishes a self-controllable technical standard that reinforces financial security and provides a robust “digital pedestal” for high-quality growth.

– Agile Distributed Architecture: Built on five major capability hubs (Accounting, Product, Public, Parameter, and Pricing), the microservices-based architecture supports unlimited dynamic scaling. This ensures the bank can expand its operations and market presence without infrastructure bottlenecks.

A Future-Ready Partnership

As Liuzhou Bank enters this new chapter, Sunline remains committed to supporting the bank’s ongoing digital evolution. By prioritizing security and controllable technology, Sunline aims to turn technological innovation into a permanent engine for the bank’s business growth.

Sunline announced today that it has secured a landmark contract with one of China’s Big Six state-owned commercial banks. The project involves the localized IT Innovation (Xinchuang) transformation of the bank’s core card clearing and settlement system.

This strategic win underscores Sunline’s technical leadership in the financial IT innovation sector and provides a blueprint for global banking institutions seeking to modernize legacy clearing systems for higher operational efficiency.

Modernizing the Foundation of Digital Finance

In an era of rapid technological disruption, autonomous and controllable technology has become the cornerstone of digital transformation for financial institutions. With the deepening of the “Belt and Road” initiative and “Global South” cooperation, the internationalization of Chinese cross-border payment scenarios, for both corporate and retail users, has necessitated more robust, secure, and efficient clearing infrastructures.

The project aims to replace legacy architecture with a self-developed, next-generation clearing system. The overhaul will focus on four critical dimensions:

• Comprehensive Functionality: Full support for credit and debit products, domestic and cross-border transactions, and AI-driven intelligent billing.

• Performance Optimization: Utilizing a next-generation batch processing framework to ensure stability during high-concurrency transaction peaks.

• System Resilience: Integration with comprehensive monitoring platforms to enhance high availability and proactive maintenance.

• Architectural Migration: A seamless transition from proprietary mainframe environments to open-platform architectures, fully compatible with domestic chip-based servers.

Expert-Led Enterprise Architecture

The migration represents a significant technical challenge, requiring the transition of mainframe applications to a distributed enterprise architecture while maintaining 24/7 business continuity.

Sunline deployed a dedicated task force of digital transformation experts to conduct deep-dive analysis and risk assessment. Leveraging its proprietary “Microservices + Distributed” Clearing Solution, Sunline has designed a roadmap that ensures a smooth cutover of legacy functions while providing the scalability needed for future business expansion.

Setting a Global Benchmark for Clearing Innovation

As cross-border e-commerce and international travel rebound, global transaction volumes are surging. Major card schemes such as Visa, Mastercard, and UnionPay are accelerating protocol upgrades to achieve real-time payment experiences. However, many global banks remain shackled by monolithic legacy systems with high maintenance costs.

Sunline’s microservices-based approach is designed to address these pain points globally. Key value propositions include:

1. Operational Efficiency: Drastically reducing the cost per transaction through advanced architectural advantages.

2. Global Adaptability: Support for diverse payment ecosystems, ranging from Western credit card markets to Southeast Asian e-wallets.

3. Regulatory Agility: Native support for shifting international compliance standards, including FATF and GDPR, as well as multi-timezone and multi-language capabilities.

About Sunline

Founded in 2002, Sunline is China’s leading banking software and technology provider. With over 7,000 employees serving 800 global clients, Sunline drives innovation in financial technology. With offices strategically located in key financial hubs across the Asia Pacific region, including Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, and the Philippines, Sunline is poised to revolutionize the banking landscape.

On July 31st, the “Unified Reporting System,” jointly developed by a joint-stock commercial bank and Sunline, officially went live. The system successfully completed the submission of the 2.0 version of the monthly report data (for June) and the 2.0 version of the daily report data (for July 23-27).

 

Since the project’s inception, both parties have leveraged deep interpretations of regulatory requirements and extensive practical experience. They coordinated efforts involving 27 departments, one wealth management subsidiary, and seven branches of the joint-stock commercial bank. Within a short four-month construction period, over 150 new data standards were established, fully covering the data standard requirements for the Unified Reporting System‘s resource layer. Additionally, they organized and refined more than 10 source business system standardization transformation needs, confirmed 84 reports, and defined over 1,000 reporting scenarios from both business and technical perspectives. This project sets an industry benchmark for promoting the digital transformation of financial industry regulation and restructuring regulatory data systems.

Three Key Factors Enhancing Project Implementation Efficiency

 

Compared to traditional regulatory reporting, the “Unified Reporting System” differs significantly in reporting methods, timeliness, and data processing standards. As the project contractor, Sunline faced multiple challenges, including tight timelines, heavy tasks, broad scope, complex data flows, and high compliance requirements. Leveraging their extensive experience and technical strengths in regulatory reporting and their strong foundation of long-term cooperation with the bank, the project team successfully completed a series of construction tasks. These tasks included business consulting, regulatory data mart transformation, data supplementation, Unified Reporting System data processing, Unified Reporting System reporting system construction, trusted zone setup, and Unified Reporting System data governance, culminating in a successful joint debugging test with the regulator in June.

 

The successful launch and reporting of the joint-stock commercial bank’s Unified Reporting System system can be attributed to several factors. Sunline’s robust accumulations in product development, team expertise, and best practices are undoubtedly the strongest guarantees of success.

 

Mature Unified Reporting System Meeting Indigenous Innovation Requirements: Since the initiation of the Unified Reporting System pilot system, Sunline has been involved in equipment deployment and system construction for several pilot banks. Through multiple project verifications and product iterations, they now offer standardized products that fully support domestic software and hardware environments, aiding banks in efficiently building a complete Unified Reporting System.

 

Expert Unified Reporting System Business Consulting Team Leading the Way: Sunline boasts a strong team of regulatory reporting experts who provide comprehensive consulting services. These services include regulatory interpretation, business analysis, reporting scenario sorting, data responsibility allocation, business and technical criteria management, Unified Reporting System data quality management, and product implementation, offering forward-looking guidance to ensure smooth project execution.

 

Knowledge Repository from Unified Reporting System Project Outcomes: Concurrently participating in the construction of Unified Reporting System systems for several joint-stock banks, Sunline has streamlined and reused results across projects. This includes business analysis, requirement sorting, validation rule refinement, and criteria standardization, as well as accumulating and sharing solutions for complex issues. This approach significantly enhances both the efficiency and quality of project delivery.

 

Five Major Challenges in Project Implementation

 

The “Unified Reporting System” represents a fundamental and systemic transformation of the existing regulatory reporting system, pushing financial institutions’ regulatory data frameworks to a new stage. Therefore, merely constructing a single system does not resolve all issues. The challenges remain centered on business, data, and data quality, including the integration of systems like 1104, EAST, and customer risk systems.

 

As a key participant in the Unified Reporting System construction, Sunline has undergone practical trials and accumulated experience, developing an effective set of solutions to tackle complex issues. These solutions enable the quick and efficient implementation of the Unified Reporting System projects for banks while effectively mitigating potential risks during the project process.

 

• Challenge 1: To date, three batches of pilots have been completed. Generally, there is a window of about three months from notification to formal reporting, making the construction period very tight.

  Solution: Conduct market research as early as possible, plan and prepare in advance, including vendor communication, business analysis, source system transformation, reporting scenario sorting, data responsibility allocation, and criteria refinement.

 

• Challenge 2: Data collection covers all business details, with high data quality requirements and consistency across systems. Reporting frequency is also high, requiring daily generation of all reporting data.

  Solution: Use mature products and implementation plans to reduce the need for customized development; leverage data governance systems to continuously improve Unified Reporting System data quality.

 

• Challenge 3: The scope involves various departments, making it impossible for the IT department to complete independently.

  Solution: Implement a data responsibility system, fostering a culture where everyone is accountable, and mobilize all parties to complete both regulatory and system construction.

 

• Challenge 4: Different business models, system conditions, data situations, and regulatory requirements make it difficult to provide standardized data that meets all needs.

  Solution: Analyze and assess the compatibility of business and source systems, and drive the transformation of source systems to align with regulatory requirements.

 

• Challenge 5: Ensuring no omissions, errors, or delays in reporting, while guaranteeing the authenticity, accuracy, and completeness of critical data.

  Solution: Fully interpret regulatory requirements during the project preparation phase, complete the sorting of business and reporting scenarios, and refine reporting criteria based on the responsibility system to ensure comprehensive system construction.

 

The “Unified Reporting System” focuses on collaborative regulation to build transparent, digital regulatory capabilities, meeting the nation’s needs for efficient financial regulatory statistics and management, and preventing systemic financial risks. Strengthening regulatory data governance is the foundation for building a digital regulatory transformation. With the successful conclusion of the third batch of pilot projects, the comprehensive rollout of the Unified Reporting System has entered the countdown phase, and its gradual replacement and streamlining of the current regulatory reporting system is a foreseeable future. Sunline will seize this opportunity, leveraging its well-validated products and implementation experience to assist financial institutions in advancing Unified Reporting System system construction and meeting Unified Reporting System regulatory reporting requirements.
