ABA​ Bank,​ a​ leading​ Cambodian​ commercial​ bank,​ received​ the​ 2021​ Elite​ Quality​ Recognition​ Award​ from​ JP​ Morgan​ Chase​ Bank​ N.A.,​ USA,​ one​ of​ the​ world​ largest​ financial​ institutions.

This​ second​ consecutive​ recognition​ bestowed​ on​ ABA​ for​ retaining​ the​ outstanding​ accuracy​ and​ excellence​ in​ MT103​ straight-through​ processing​ (STP)​ rate​ for​ international​ transfers​ and​ payments​ in​ US​ Dollars.

STP​ is​ the​ automated​ process​ of​ payments​ without​ manual​ intervention,​ with​ increased​ processing​ speed,​ minimized​ errors​ and​ lowered​ costs.​ ABA​ Bank​ exceeded​ the​ STP​ performance​ standards​ and​ qualified​ for​ the​ award,​ which​ recognizes​ that​ almost​ all​ Bank​ transactions​ were​ error-free​ with​ a​ limited​ number​ of​ returns​ and​ rejections.

The​ award​ is​ only​ given​ to​ banks​ that​ perform​ high-quality​ money​ transfer​ operations​ and​ manage​ to​ process​ at​ least​ 90%​ of​ accurate​ transactions​ of​ their​ customers.​ In​ 2021,​ the​ rate​ of​ error-free​ money​ transfers​ and​ payments​ on​ ABA​ Bank​ exceeded​ 99.5%!

ABA​ remains​ the​ first​ and​ only​ Cambodian​ bank​ to​ receive​ such​ an​ award​ from​ JP​ Morgan.​ It​ continues​ to​ reflect​ the​ reliability​ of​ the​ Bank's​  operational​ excellence​ in​ processing​ international​ transfers​ and​ payments​ in​ US​ Dollars.

"For​ the​ second​ consecutive​ year,​ ABA​ has​ proven​ to​ exceed​ the​ performance​ standards​ of​ processing​ its​ clients'​ international​ payments​ and​ transfers​ in​ US​ Dollars.​ We​ are​ proud​ to​ get​ this​ recognition​ from​ JP​ Morgan,​ proving​ that​ our​ commitment​ is​ consistent​ and​ reliable,”​ commented​ Sim​ Suongsantepheap,​ Head​ of​ the​ International​ Operations​ Department​ of​ ABA​ Bank.
