CBI S.c.p.a.

CBI Benefit Corporation is a public limited consortium company, comprising 400 banks and other intermediaries as shareholders, that develops digital infrastructure (including Cloud and DLT) and services for financial institutions and payment service providers (PSPs) across Europe. With over 30 years of experience, CBI serves as an industry utility, with a Business-to-Business- to – Customer (B2B2C) perspective in addition to enabling banks to transition into a network economy, where services and value grow through an expanding web of interconnected users.
CBI solutions enhance transaction banking, open banking, and open finance, fostering seamless interconnection between ecosystems. CBI operates under the supervision of Bank of Italy, therefore obligated to comply with the measure "Provisions on the supervision of payment systems and technological or network instrumental infrastructure" as a "critical infrastructure or service provider".
Over these years, from an Open Finance and Data Monetization perspective, CBI has developed a few value-added services (VAS) that enhance its clients’ competitiveness. Among these, Name Check is a fully Verification of Payee - compliant Routing and Verification Mechanism (RVM), designed to streamline Verification of Payee (VoP) operations for both Requesting and Responding PSPs. Developed in response to the Instant Payment Regulation, this service underscores CBI’s commitment to regulatory compliance.
In addition to Name Check, CBI offers other VAS solutions such as Check IBAN and CBI Safe Trade, which provide unparalleled security and fraud prevention benefits.
Today, over 80% of the Italian banking sector relies on the CBI Globe platform, which facilitates seamless digital communication among Payment Service Providers, fintech companies, enterprises, and public administrations. By ensuring compliance with the evolving EU regulatory framework, CBI Globe plays a pivotal role in the Open Banking and Open Finance landscape.
Further reinforcing its commitment to social responsibility, CBI became a Benefit Corporation in 2023, integrating public benefit objectives into its corporate mission to support socially driven initiatives.
