Siebel Connector for IFX XML

The Siebel Connector for IFX XML module extends from the Siebel Financial Services Industry XML Connector module. It is based on the IFX Forum standard for financial data exchange using XML. The Siebel Connector for IFX XML uses an IFX-compliant server, such as IBM WSBCC or another middleware application.

Siebel Connector for IFX XML provides integration between the Siebel Financial Services application and external IFX-based applications. The IFX specification supports financial communication between financial institutions, corporations, service providers, and consumers.

The IFX specification allows financial institutions to support customers using a broad range of client devices, including, but not limited to:

  • World Wide Web access using any standard Web browser software

  • Personal computers with Personal Financial Manager (PFM) software

  • Voice Response Units (VRUs) that provide bank by phone services

  • Automated Teller Machines (ATMs)

  • Consumer mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones

  • Mobile telephones with data capabilities
