Oracle FS is understood to have competed against Finastra and incumbent supplier 3i Infotech to win the contract.

Oracle reports in its results that 13 customers went live on its systems during Q4, and that it signed $24 million in licencing deals over the same time period.
In a statement, Chet Kamat, managing director and CEO of Oracle, calls the quarter a solid one, including more than a month of impacts from the coronavirus pandemic.
He adds: “I am very proud that our robust infrastructure, processes, and most importantly our people, have ensured that we continue to deliver the commitments with minimal disruptions.”
