A deployment in production
Natbizz, National Bank of Kenya’s own supply chain finance platform, runs on the Ankara Platform, live in production. It is the bank’s brand, the bank’s customers and the bank’s credit decisions; Mtaji is the software underneath. This page walks through how it is structured: the part a bank planning its own deployment needs to see.
Three layers, and the boundaries between them are the case study: whose brand, whose customers, whose credit decisions, whose software.
Brand, customers, credit decisions.
The program is the bank’s product. The anchors are the bank’s corporate customers, the suppliers and distributors in those programs are the bank’s customers, and every credit decision is the bank’s, under its own policy and limits. The M-Score is an input to that decision and never a substitute for it.
The software underneath.
The Ankara Platform runs the programs (onboarding, instruments, pricing display, settlement workflow, the M-Score) configured to the bank’s product set and risk criteria, and operated by the bank’s people through the bank’s interface.
One fixed element.
Every white-label software surface carries a “Powered by Mtaji Technologies” line. It is a term of the model rather than a design choice.
Three workstreams are scoped before signature, and a shallower integration launches sooner than a deep one. The walkthrough covers the dates and durations.
Theming is configuration rather than a development project, and your customer sees your bank on every screen.
The product set a bank switches on is configuration: supply-side products, buy-side facilities, and the risk criteria that govern them.
A full integration connects your core banking or loan management system; a lighter integration receives opportunities, returns decisions and confirms settlement through the rails you already have, and can deepen later.
The walkthrough sets out how each workstream ran in that deployment, and how it would run in yours.
The white-label page carries the four objections banks actually raise (timing, branding, core banking, data ownership) and the documented hosting position. The walkthrough covers what this page deliberately leaves out.
