This entails Pension Houses or insurance companies receiving the payroll, pension or insurance data centrally while harnessing the financial sector network to ensure funds are remitted as a priori to pension or insurance data submission. The Paynet e-schedule system interfaces with pension administration back office systems thus eliminating manual processes. Both insurance and Pension Houses will enjoy cost reduction through back office automation, service quality improvements through timely collection of revenue, management of revenue leakages and facilitating receipt of clean data from their corporate customers.
